7.4 WxCC Cutover Runbook

7.4.1 Cutover Overview

   WXCC CUTOVER - HIGH-LEVEL APPROACH
   CUTOVER TYPE: Weekend Big-Bang (per wave)
   WHY WEEKEND:
   Lowest call volume period
   Maximum time for issue resolution
   Minimal customer impact
   Staff availability for extended hours
   WHY BIG-BANG (NOT PARALLEL):
   UCCX depends on CUCM CTI - no parallel possible after Phase 1
   Single Entry Point cannot route to both UCCX and WxCC simultaneously
   Clean cutover reduces complexity
   CUTOVER SEQUENCE:
   FREEZE   -   SWITCH   -   VERIFY   -   GO LIVE
   UCCX   ROUTING   WXCC
   T-0   T+30 min   T+60 min   T+120 min
   DURATION: ~3 hours (cutover) + 48 hours (stabilization)
