color=#0000ff size=2>I've actually installed a 2-node CUCM 7 under VMware with
NTP operational (for what I'm doing synced time for traces is a
neccessity). I had some initial DB sync problems but I got them sorted
out. Both under the free version of VMware. One platform is WinXP
(subscriber), the other Ubuntu with a few timer/CPU fixes
(publisher).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV><BR>I eventually solved the problem. I'm guessing that there
was some sort of conflict with the NTP client/server installed on the underlying
Debian operating system. I'm not really sure how that happened since the
VMWare guest should be isolated from the host.<BR><BR>Anyway, I have now
successfully installed 2 CUCM7 nodes on VMWare ESXi (running on old MCS servers)
and also on VMWare Server 2 running on Ubuntu 8.10 server 64-bit (without NTP
installed). This is with the default 3 node/150 DLU license.
Installed with static IP, no DNS, no NTP, no SMTP.<BR><BR>

node (publisher) in VMware Server (Linux) with the following
configuration:<BR>Static IP/network info, no NTP, no SMTP, no DNS.<BR><BR>I
am now trying to add a second node (subscriber) to the cluster (same VMware,
same bridged network), and I keep getting an installation failure when the
second node tries to synchronize with the NTP server on the first
node. The second node passes the first part of the installation, and
then reboots and continues installation until the NTP sync part where it
fails.<BR><BR>On the first node I have tried all types of installation
configurations (using NTP, DNS) and I have verified network connectivity
between the first node and second node (ping) using the CLI. I have
also changed the first node config from hostname to IP address and added the
second node under ccmadmin->system->server before starting the second
node installation.<BR><BR>Has anyone experienced this or can tell me what
I'm missing?<BR><BR>Thanks.
