[cisco-voip] Vmware Supported by Cisco...Thoughts??

[Wydra, Jason]

Lab only here. Never seen it in production. Think of all of the money
that HP, IBM and Cisco would lose if they even thought about supporting
VMware. Not to mention the obvious single point of failure. I suppose
you could have a hot standby VMware machine that would take over
whenever any of the components failed. Still very scary though if you
ask me.

I think most are setting it up for test labs or demo boxes.. we had IPCC
demo'ed to us the first time around running on VMware installed on a
little shuttle PC (with CCM and agent desktop on a different VM's). The
engineer only had to lug around 1 small PC to run the demo.

Thanks for the response Kevin.  Other than for the obvious reason I
stated earlier.  Why is everyone on this site installing 4.1.3 and etc.
on Vmware if it is not supported?  When will Cisco support Vmware?

Cisco does not support VMWare for CallManager, etc. The only Cisco
supported installations are the ones described in the docs on CCO.

Let's take this communication in another direction...  This is very
interesting to read all the comments and questions about Vmware.  When
we purchased our environment from Cisco.  We had problems with TAC
support after the install because our environment was not standard in
their opinion.  I have two questions: 

 

1. Does Cisco support the Vmware environment?  

 

2. And if so, what are the parameters for support and guidance? 

 

3. And, what products do they support, e.g. Windows? 

 

This could save us $$ when it comes to replacing servers! 

 

Thanks.
