One other gotcha - We use pair 6509s with VSS teaming so needed update vSwitch to accommodate<br>

I’ve just configured a pair C210 – main things in ESXi you need to do are disable LRO and align datastore partitions by essentially deleting and re-adding the stores in ESXi<br>
<br>
Long as you use the OVA templates no need to worry about VM specs<br>

I also took the liberty of updating the boot order (demoting NICs an disabling PXE boot)<br>

Subject: [cisco-voip] Configuration ESXi on UCS<br>
<br>
Hello Group<br>
<br>
is there a document available that describes all the settings for ESXi that UC works without problem on UCS.<br>
One thing that I found is disable LRO on UCS.<br>
Are there other settings???<br>
<br>
Thanks for help<br>
