7.0(0) ICM Upgrade Guide for Cisco ICM/IPCC Enterprise & Hosted Editions has been rewritten to 
include more detailed upgrade procedures, and includes upgrade checklists to make it easier to keep 
track of progress during a system upgrade. The 7.0(0) Cisco ICM/IPCC Enterprise and Hosted Edition 
Hardware and System Software Specification (Bill of Materials)
 also has been enhanced to include 
hardware definitions for both Technology Refresh (hardware replacement) and Common Ground 
(hardware reuse) upgrades.
