[cisco-voip] CUCM 6.1 Upgrade and IBM MCS

[Ryan Ratliff]

You need to have IBM replace the motherboard.  Apparently there was  
an issue with a small number of those servers that reported the CPU  
incorrectly.  I found another TAC SR with the same issue.

So open a TAC SR and shoot me the number and I'll put a note in there.

Actually I just discovered the hardware validation log show's that  
it's picking the cpu up as 1.4Ghz, which oddly enough is what it  
displays in the bios under system information. /proc/cpuinfo shows  
6.0Ghz (HT)? It is actually at 3.4 Ghz. I've got a bios update  
downloaded from IBM, but I don't want to install it and risk  
stability with cucm 6.1. Do you have any bios version information for  
IBM servers as it relates to CUCM 6.1? Thanks in advance.

7825-I1-IPC1 is supported with 6.1.

Do you get a specific error message regarding clock speed, etc?

Yeah, I've tried the disc a few times. There's something about the  
hardware the installer doesn't like, or I don't have the correct  
installer for a IBM 7825.

The CCM 6.1 disc does not specify HP on it, so I am guessing the IBM
one is the same....

To be honest, I don't think it matters, worst case, just try the disc,
if your system is not compatible, i am sure it will tell you... from
the specs you gave, it should be fine.
