Cisco Cisco Prime Network Control System Appliance

All WCS Release 7.0 alarms and event data are stored as CSV files along with other data in a 
.zip file during upgrade.

The root password is not migrated from the WCS releases to NCS Release 1.1.0.58. The user must 
change the root password during the installation of the application. Non root users and their 
credentials are migrated during migration.

Alarm categories and subcategories are not restored after migration to NCS Alarm Summary.

You can upgrade from NCS Releases 1.0.0.96, 1.0.1.4, 1.0.2.28, and 1.0.2.29 to NCS 1.1.0.58.

Ensure that you perform a backup before attempting to upgrade.

Remove high availability before performing the upgrade.

For the TACACS+/RADIUS user authentication, the custom attributes related to the new features are 
required to be added/appended to the existing set of attributes in AAA server to access certain 
pages/views. For example, Monitor Media Stream page, Virtual Domain List (to view the list of virtual 
domains from the Create Report page), and so on.

Shut down NCS before performing the upgrade. To stop NCS, enter the ncs stop command.

Use the following command to upgrade from NCS 1.0 to NCS 1.1.0.58:

# application upgrade NCS-upgrade-bundle-1.1.0.58.tar.gz wcs-ftp-repo

In the preceding command, NCS-upgrade-bundle-1.1.0.58.tar.gz is the upgrade bundle file, which is 
available for download.

The repository used in the example, wcs-ftp-repo, can be any valid repository.
