I think you'll find the proverbial, "it depends" is the answer.<br>
<br>
The wiki doc starts here: <br>
<br>
</span><a href="http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Unified_Communications_Virtualization_Sizing_Guidelines#General_Rules_for_Co-residency_and_Physical.2FVirtual_Hardware_Sizing" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Unified_Communications_Virtualization_Sizing_Guidelines#General_Rules_for_Co-residency_and_Physical.2FVirtual_Hardware_Sizing</span></a><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black"><br>
<br>
You'll have to get your apps lined up and see which ones have what rules.<br>
<br>
But I have a feeling, that this doc wiki, as updated as it may be, sometimes is not "authoritative". I had an interesting discussion with my SE as far as how many VMs I could run on one UCS chassis. I read the doc, came up with a plan, and word came back, both
from the SE and from his support team that my design was over provisioned. I'm pushing back, asking them why if all I did was read the documentation and sized it accordingly. Never got a good explanation as to why the conflict.<br>
<br>
Good luck.<br>
