[cisco-voip] IBM Server Equivalent for MCS 7845-I1-UC1

The thing about it is sometimes it will work, sometimes it won't.  If  
at any point the server has issues and it is found to not match the  
documented specs you then lose all support from the BU and at that  
point TAC may not be able to do anything more for you.

It was just particularly annoying when TAC tells me, "Hey, look at  
the documentation...the server isn't going to work!" On the other  
side of Cisco's mouth, the sales engineer tells the customer, "Don't  
worry, this server will work...you just need the latest OS."

Guess who looks like a jackass to the customer?

Uhhhh huh.

You can't trust the current documentation. I am at a customer site  
where they had parts slightly different and was under the assumption  
that the server wouldn't work. I received OS.2003.1.4 and it worked.  
Cisco needs to update those documents.

www.cisco.com/go/swonly > IBM Server Solutions

do a CTRL-F for 7845-I1

That will give you the most important stuff. The I1 just indicates  
number of processors, amount of memory, amount of disk, etc. The  
listing in the sheet will give you the part numbers, that has to  
match EXACTLY.

I did this for some old server that I wanted to Physically back up.  If
you have a functioning system that your are trying to duplicate:

1) Go to Computer Management
2) System Information>System Summary
3) Get the system Model (I have HP servers so DL380 G3 as an example)
4) Buy it on Ebay

Any tipps are welcome.
