7.5 Rollback Procedures

7.5.1 Rollback Decision Framework

   ROLLBACK DECISION FRAMEWORK
   CRITICAL: ROLLBACK = FULL STACK REVERT
   Because UCCX requires CUCM CTI connectivity, rollback means:
   1. Revert agents from WxCC to Webex Calling only (no CC)
   2. Re-enable CUCM (if still available during hypercare)
   3. Re-enable UCCX
   4. Re-register phones to CUCM
   ROLLBACK TRIGGERS (Auto):
   > 50% of agents unable to login after 2 hours
   > 30% of test scenarios failing after remediation attempts
   Complete Entry Point failure (no calls reaching WxCC)
   Recording not functioning (compliance risk)
   ROLLBACK TRIGGERS (Manual - Business Decision):
   Customer impact exceeds acceptable threshold
   Prolonged degradation with no resolution in sight
   Business owner requests rollback
   ROLLBACK WINDOW:
   Wave 1-2: Rollback possible within 48 hours (CUCM still active)
   Wave 3: Rollback possible within 2 weeks (hypercare period)
   Post-hypercare: CUCM decommissioned - no rollback path
   ROLLBACK AUTHORITY:
   Primary:   CC Operations Manager + Voice Engineering Lead
   Escalation: IT Director
