[Former Member]

Hello Mobile Gurus,

We are planning for upgrading mobile from 2007 SP2 to SP6. Can anyone of you guess a time line for achieving this?

I mean, how long will it take in dev env to upgrade commstation, mrs, mdw etc. apart from upgrading the field laptops?

thanks

Hello

Since you are trying to upgrade from CRM 2007 SP 01 to CRM 2007 SP 06, it would not take long time. Please find the approximate tilme line for each step of the upgrdae.

1. CommStattion Upgrade = 1 Day

2. MAR Upgrade = 1- 2days

3. MDW upgrade = 1 day

4. Resolving the collisions and stabilizing the application - 7 days

5.

Best regards

Thanks Siva.

Just to make sure, it is from SP2 to SP6.

Also, you left out point 5. (j/k)

Also, i read from the upgrade doc that MAR upgrade take 1 hour for each support stack being upgraded.

"A repository upgrade from support package n to n+1 would require

approximately an hour (without additional languages)".

Your comments pls.

Hello Mahesh

had missed 5th point. ie Rollout to the client laptops . the amount of time it takes will be based on the kind of customization and kind of issues that you face in your application . etc.

Repostiroy upgrade from n to n+1 release will take approx 1-2 hours (with out additinal language) and it is correct.

I have given you the rough estimates so that you will get a fair idea how much time it is going to take.

Best Regards
