[cisco-voip] List of MCS hardware equivalents for CallManager 5

[Voll, Scott]

I would use the 3.06 Box for CM and use what ever is left for Unity.
Unity runs on anything.

 

It all comes down to what Cisco certified at the time....... Personally
we are a Dell shop so the HP(Cisco) stick out in my rack.  And all my
3rd party stuff is on Dell also.  I even have a Unity server running on
a Dell

 

It's one of those things that you just aren't going to win.... You know
like call forwarding a second line(right Lelio?). or all IPT using the
same version of Java(I'm talking to myself).

But that isn't 'everything' I need to know.

I want to know the mods... not just the model numbers for latest and
greatest, I want a list of everything that is supported (and will be by
TAC)

So, for instance... 

I have a cust that has a lot of DL380 G3s... how do I need to configure
that bad boy so I can install CCM5?

I have another customer that has a DL320 G4 (P4 3.4Ghz, dual 80GB SATA,
2GB of RAM), CCM5 installed fine, no probs... 

However,  a single 2.8Ghz Xeon with 2GB of RAM and dual 72GB U320 SCSI
drives failed the hardware check... (so did a dual 2.4Ghz Xeon with 4GB
of RAM and dual 72GB U320s...)

So, is there a G3 config that will work? 

(as far as I can get from that page, a single 2.4Ghz Xeon with 2 36Gb
drives should work... which doesn't make sense... a dual Xeon with more
HD space fails?? What????)

I think there should be logic behind this, there appears to not be. 

BTW, I think the dual Xeon box is faster than the crappy DL320..

Here's for fun... they don't have any DL380G3s with 2.4Ghz processors
left, they do have a 380 with a 3060Mhz box, but they want to use it for
their Unity server... They have literally dozens of the 2.8s, but they
aren't supported.

This is slowly getting into 'this blows' territory....

I am going to have retask something here...

Customer has an HP contract and will not buy Cisco servers...

They also have a crapload of HP servers lying around and don't see 
the reason to buy another one... (all servers are G3s, combination of
DL320s, 360s and 380s).

I am looking for hardware specs for each that Cisco will allow an
install on (I would rather get a list and match requirements than do 
the trial and error thing...)
