[cisco-voip] UC on UCS C-Series Datastore Setup

If you have a TRC then you can find instructions in here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/virtual/CUCM_BK_CA526319_00_cucm-on-virtualized-servers_chapter_00.html

If you are specs-based, then it's expected you know how to structure your datastore(s) to meet your needs so there won't be specific instructions.

All of our docs that I've run through have instructions for configuring two separate RAID arrays, one for ESXi and ISOs, and another for VMs.  The ones I've done have been RAID 1 and RAID 5 (respectively) and these are usually done at the same time, before you install ESXi.

Hi, 

I'm in the process of building my first C-Series UCS server from scratch. 

I've configured RAID, installed ESXi and have logged into vSphere. I need to configure a datastore which I'm ok with. 

I have a question regarding the datastore setup. Is there any recommendations from Cisco on how to configure these logically?

I've seen a couple of installs that have two datastores, one for VMs and another for ISO images etc for quick rebuilds..

I have a 1.9TB of disk space to use and I'd like to set it up in line with best practice if I can. 

Thanks, 

Rab
