See the Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager Upgrade Guide for instructions on how to upgrade your
product.
Polycom delivers RealPresence Resource Manager system upgrades within major (for example, 10.0),
minor releases (for example, 10.x) and updates with maintenance releases (for example, 10.x.x).
If you are running a version prior to 8.0, you must sequentially apply every minor upgrade version until you
get to 8.0.
Customers running 8.0 and later can directly upgrade to the next minor version without worrying about the
maintenance updates in between. For example, you can upgrade directly from 8.2 > 8.3 or from 8.3 >8.4.
If you want to update to a maintenance release of the next minor release, you must first upgrade to the next
minor release and then update to the maintenance release. For example, if you want to upgrade 8.1.x to
8.2.1, you must upgrade to 8.2 first, then update to 8.2.1.
You must be running on either version 10.0.0 or 10.0.1 to upgrade to 10.1 and later.
Polycom supports the following upgrade and migration paths for RealPresence Resource Manager system.
