That used to be 100% true. For better or worse Truth is a function of time T=f(t).<br>
<br>
VMotion is starting to be supported:<br>

<b>Subject:</b> [cisco-voip] UC on UCS auto failover in hardware</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am going to deploy UC on UCS and I am aware that we can move the UC application from one blade server to other slot or UCS chassis easily. However the question is how much redundancy/failover can be supported with UC on UCS system.
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">An example for CallManager; if the Subscriber 1 server is down, all the voice endpoints will failover to the backup CCM server automatically. This is application redundancy and auto failover.
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">As for hardware ie: blade server /disks are down for any reason, would UCS system be able to auto failover the UC applications into another spare blade server?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">As far as I know from reading some doco, we have to manualy dissassociate service profile and reassociate that to the spare blade and then power it ON to achieve the recovery.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can anyone with UC on UCS experience share this thought?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
