<FONT FACE="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:11pt'>I had considered the possibility, as the option came available just before I was started the purchase of UCS C servers. Personally I made the decision to stick with the UCS servers mainly for support reasons. Virtualization of Cisco UC is still relatively new, and having only one point of contact for any problems is a definite benefit (call TAC for all issues with no back and forth between vendors).<BR>
<BR>
I also figured that since the requirements were so strict for UC, there wasn’t much benefit in using existing infrastructure.<BR>

<BR>
we are evaluating UCS for our voice servers. we plan to set up on UCS C servers.<BR>
my boss asked me to also evaluate the posibillity to install the voice servers on our IBM X86 VMWare (ESXi 4.1) infrastructure.<BR>
<BR>
Has anybody experience installing CUCM, CUPS, IP IVR, UCCE on a non UCS VMWare platform?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for feedback<BR>
