Looks like an oversight in the way the install was scripted where AMD cpus were just not taken into account rather than a malicious act. I've got an email out to the install team to see if they plan on fixing it.<div>

<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><br></div><div style="margin: 0px;">Version 6 works fine, no problems, but version 7.0.1.11000-2, which is the released version of CUCM 7 and the version that comes with their Not-For-Resale offering, will fail the post install check with a complaint about AMD. The funny thing is that the programs install, the Linux kernels and drivers are installed, but when the post install script af_lap_post is run it states "No cdp driver module for athlonSMP system" and the install is failed. Unity Connection 7 and Unified Presence 7 does the same thing.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><br></div><div style="margin: 0px;">It appears that for some reason either Cisco or a programmer at Cisco decided that they did not like AMD and purposely configured the version 7 products that use Linux to fail. This makes no sense. If you create the VMware image on an Intel machine and then copy the image to a computer with an AMD cpu, the VMware image runs fine. If you are running the programs in VMware they are not supported by Cisco to start with, so why purposely make the programs fail if you have an AMD CPU?<span> </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><br></div><div style="margin: 0px;">Cisco needs to get to the bottom of this and release new DVDs that don't have this nonsense. I work with a few High Schools and Technical schools, along with a few Training Centers that upgraded their servers and computers but they have AMD CPU's. While these places are not certified Cisco training centers, they do train a fair amount of students each year, not to mention that my company either has to replace the motherboards/cpu's in computers that are not even 4 months old or work around the fact that you can't practice migrations or installs.</div>
