Downloading Cisco Unity Connection Release 2.1(3b) Service Update 1 Software
Revised 03 April, 2012

To Download Cisco Unity Connection Release 2.1(3b) Service Update 1 Software


Step 1 Log on to a computer with a high-speed Internet connection, and go to the Voice and Unified Communications Downloads page at http://tools.cisco.com/support/downloads/pub/Redirect.x?mdfid=278875240.


Note To access the software download page, you must be logged on to Cisco.com as a registered user.


Step 2 In the tree control on the Downloads page, expand : Products>Voice and Unified Communications>IP Telephony>Unified Messaging>Cisco Unity Connection, and click Cisco Unity Connection Version 2.1.

Step 3 On the Select a Software Type page, click Cisco Unity Connection Software.

Step 4 On the Select a Release page, click 2.1.3bSU1, and the download links appear on the right side of the page.

Step 5 Confirm that the computer you are using has sufficient hard disk space for the downloaded files. (The download file sizes appear below the download links.)

Step 6 Click UCSInstall_UCOS_SU_2.1.3b.3190-1.sgn.iso, and follow the on-screen prompts to complete the download. Make note of the MD5 value.

Step 7 Use a checksum generator to confirm that the MD5 checksum matches the checksum that is listed on Cisco.com. If the values do not match, the downloaded file is damaged.


Caution Do not attempt to use a damaged file to install software, or the results will be unpredictable. If the MD5 values do not match, download the file again until the value for the downloaded file matches the value listed on Cisco.com.

Free checksum tools are available on the Internet, or example, the Microsoft File Checksum Integrity Verifier utility. The utility is described in Microsoft Knowledge Base article 841290, Availability and Description of the File Checksum Integrity Verifier Utility. The KB article also includes a link for downloading the utility.

Step 8 If you are installing from a DVD, burn the DVD, noting the following considerations:

Use the Joliet file system, which accommodates filenames up to 64 characters long.

If the disc-burning application that you are using includes an option to verify the contents of the burned disc, choose that option. This causes the application to compare the contents of the burned disc with the source files.
