Any other type of public cloud offer (e.g. Step 5 After installation of the new version of VMware Tools is complete, remove the VMware Tools tar file from the virtual CD/DVD drive. NOTE: support varies by app and version. Used to preserve the state of a VM without copying or creating additional VMs, effectively as a backup/restore or reversion technique. This feature automates patching and updating of VMware vSphere hosts and Guest OS. Cisco physical / virtual networking infrastructure is presumed transparent to Collaboration workloads. However, if Storage vMotion must be used, it is only under the following conditions: This feature automates patching and updating of VMware vSphere hosts and Guest OS. Not supported. UCM, IMP and CUC have caveated support (see
Virtualization Software Requirements - Required vs. Additionally, the UC applications and operating systems cannot set the Layer 2 COS markings. Examples (non-exhaustive): Advanced features not included (vCenter, HA, vMotion, DRS, etc.). ), certain older Intel Xeon (any Nehalem or Westmere model), AMD older EPYC generations, AMD non-EPYC generations.
Refer to the VMware documentation for requirements to use this feature. If purchased from and supported by 3rd-party (e.g. Three HyperFlex nodes per site are sufficient to provide hardware redundancy. Step 1 From the vSphere Client log in to vCenter, or your ESXi host, and go to the Hosts and Clusters view (Ctrl+Shift+H). if you have more than 10,000 users in Cisco Unified Communications Manager, you must use the 5,000 user OVA template at a minimum, even if you plan to license less than 5,000 users of IM and . If later we find we need more links, faster links or different interconnect type, we can always add additional NICs or Cisco VICs later.

Failovers to other servers must not result in an unsupported deployment model (e.g. For network, spec sheet indicates C220 M5SX includes 2 x 10Gbase-T Intel x550 embedded (on the motherboard) LOM ports. Failovers to other servers must not result in an unsupported deployment model (e.g. On the General tab, enter the trunk name. VMware vCenter Converter
Not supported. Other features from vSphere Standard Edition. No reboot is required. vSphere Storage Appliance (VSA)
We don't use username/password authentication to configure a SIP trunk between Asterisk and CUCM, so select the following options: Authentication - select None. The Cisco VoIP/CCME section aims to provide a solid VOIP configuration reference guide to the VoIP community. Note that when VMware vCenter is not required and is not used, then VMware vSphere ESXi's default management interface is its free/included VMware vSphere Client (formerly branded VI Client). E.g. Any other type of public cloud offer (e.g. direct from VMware) then ESXi support is provided by the 3rd-party vendor. upgrade to 8.x software version on the bare-metal server
Before applying a VMware upgrade or update to a host, always verify compatibility with each Cisco Collaboration app (At a Glance table at, Note that use of VMware vSphere ESXi 4.1 requires disabling the "LRO" setting (. Network traffic is switched from physical NICs to "vNIC's" of the Virtual Machines (VM) via either VMware vSwitch or Cisco Nexus 1000V. So we will align with BE7000H (M5) and instead spec 192 GB. 3
Note that vDisk partition alignment is affected only by not using the Cisco proved OVA for initial install or reinstall of a VM. See vMotion for what is supported. Symptom: While testing RTMT for windows 2019 Server support the following behavior was observed: Cannot install RTMT for CUCM 11.5SU6 and higher on Windows Server 2019 The following errors may be seen: "The selected application is not a valid Java Virtual Machine for this installation" or "Flexeraaw_@aaa: Windows DLL failed to load Conditions: May only be done during a maintenance window with UC VMs shut down. moving VM from ESXi host A to ESXi host B in another chassis, closet, building, etc. See VMware Consolidated Backup for what is supported. Quote Collab tool may be used for assistance with planning applications on virtualized infrastructure. 3rd-Party VM-based Deployment Tools

See also VMware Data Recovery and Copy Virtual Machine. VMware High Availability (HA)
If vMotion is suspected as the cause of dropped calls, customers should gather appropriate application logs as well as performance data from VMware vCenter and send to Cisco TAC for analysis. 10.0
Cisco Collaboration apps will explicitly indicate which Major/Minor versions they support (e.g. CUCM Real Time Monitoring - Trace Collection, Alerts, System Overview. If you are using a Cisco Business Edition 6000/7000 appliance with an embedded virtualization license, then choice and quantity of 3rd-party applications and Cisco non-Collaboration applications are restricted due to licensing. Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. ESXi contains several optimizations for real-time applications and is therefore what Cisco will support. This document covers the Procedure for Dumping CUCM Fresh Install Logs - Virtualization Problem Description In order to dump install logs on a virtual UC installation, it is necessary to use a virtual serial port on the virtual machine. To configure a trunk, proceed to Connectivity -> Trunks. ESXi 6.7 U2, vmfs6, vmv15, vmtools 10.3.10). The Cisco Unified Communications IM&P server uses the same virtualization approach that is used by CUCM or Cisco Unity Connection. NOTE: support varies by app and version. Cisco recommendation is to use the latest Maintenance release supported by the hardware vendor. P2V tools are not supported. Obtain new version key from My Cisco Entitlements (MCE).Obtain installation media from vmware.com (Cisco UCS-specific images). "Complex" virtualization environments are defined as: Prevalent 3rd-party infrastructure not provided by Cisco, Performance debugging & other issues where isolation/root cause is not straightforward. Cisco Collaboration apps do not require or even use most of the new features in new vmv versions (e.g. Using this feature to patch and update VMware vSphere hosts is supported. To download the OVA files, refer to the Collaboration Virtualization Sizing guidelines. Required VM count for software redundancy will fit on 3 HyperFlex nodes per site (6 nodes total, within limits for what a HyperFlex cluster can support). Follow UCS DIMM population rules for 2x16GB=32GB (ignore options like Memory Mirroring). Performance is dependent on many factors including deployment specifics, so vCPU/vRAM increases may or may not improve performance. The CUCM installer will detect that the underlying hardware is virtualized on ESXi and install all the appropriate drivers. Method
VSA is not really a "feature" but rather a storage product from VMware. The following links can be used to determine if an individual Maintenance Release or patch "can" or "should" be deployed:
Not supported. VMware vMotion
Cisco Collaboration applications are supported with DAS, SAN, NAS and HCI technologies, from Cisco or 3rd-parties, that are supported by the compute/server hardware. Note that Cisco Unified Communications applications upgrades, patches and updates can not be delivered through VMware Update Manager. Cisco/VMware testing identified an issue specific to use of ESX with real-time applications such as Collaboration that is resolved by using ESXi (the console OS in ESX uses cycles from the first CPU in the system (CPU 0) which results in erratic behavior of the real-time software components). Some counter-examples (non-exhaustive): E.g. Cisco Collaboration apps do not require or even use most of the new features in new vmv versions (e.g. UCCE has application-specific VM placement rules, vs. UCM's rules. Monitor the virtual machine console from the vSphere Client to see the system status. Not supported. Always enable hyperthreading in the hardware BIOS if it is present to enable.
This feature provides integration with 3rd-party backup utilities so that they can non-disruptively backup the OS and application in a Virtual Machine (VM). License Comparison- Shipping
Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. Three blade server per site are sufficient to provide hardware redundancy and geographic redundancy (note that each site will require its own blade server chassis). For details on general-purpose vCenter licenses, see the following: Cisco UCS Spec Sheet or Cisco HyperFlex Spec Sheet for the hardware model of interest (e.g. Caveated Support for VMware CPU Reservations and Distributed Resource Scheduler). Long Distance vMotion
IBM Cloud and others are not supported). Copying a Virtual Machine (VM) copies both the virtual server configuration and the workload (UC OS and application) running on that virtual server to a file on networked shared storage. SIP trunks. Server Vendor's hardware compatiblity information for the vSphere ESXi Major/Minor version required by Cisco Collaboration. One HDD per physical CPU core, with 4-8 disks per RAID6 array (more disks per volume are discouraged due to slowed write times vs. many Cisco Collaboration applications are write-intensive). 2
Questions? Minimum required memory is ~44GB for this example's VM mix, but during change management or outage mitigation, other VMs may need to run on the server which will drive up required RAM. Click Add Trunk to create a new SIP trunk. Plan for quad RAID5 volumes. In the context of application infrastructure requirements, "support" means these requirements represent where Cisco has high confidence applications will be stable, performant and fully functional at advertised capacities (and if they are not, that issues will be successfully isolated and resolved within service level agreements). This needs to be accounted for in VM Placement. Customers must download and use these OVA template files for initial install, as they cover items such as supported capacity levels and any required OS/VM/SAN "alignment". For deployments of >1000 users or >2500 devices, some processors are not supported regardless of their base frequency even if the parent architecture is supported. E.g. Make sure to identify customer's access network switching/fabric infrastructure and copper vs. fiber cabling before you buy compute/storage hardware, so you procure the right interface cards/ports/cables. Not supported. Step 2 To mount the correct version of the VMware Tools software in the Guest virtual CD/DVD drive, perform the following sub-steps. See VMware Consolidated Backup for what is supported. VMware "Long Distance vMotion" (site to site) is not supported. I.e. Application
See the documentation for the UC application software or UC appliance software to see what is supported. NOTE: support varies by app and version. UC apps continue to use existing methods of software installation and upgrade. If mixing capacity points in the same UCM cluster then the scale per cluster and the density per node continue to be limited to that of the lowest capacity point (as described in the design guide).
VSA is not really a "feature" but rather a storage product from VMware. Cisco Unity Virtualization Design Guide
Any 3rd-party public cloud offers based on VMware Cloud Foundation (e.g. File Deploy OVF Template, eg: \OVA-ISO\cucm_10.5_vmv8_v1.8.ova; Right click virtual machine, EDIT virtual machine settings, and insert a Boot CD! UCM, IMP and CUC have caveated support (see
VMware Data Recovery
VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB)
The BE6000M (M5) ships with 48GB to accommodate typical scenarios with other apps that might run on this hardware besides the specific app/VM mix in this example. NOTE: support varies by app and version. Many other possible supported hardware configurations exist.
(Usually, the VMware Tools tar file is called linux.iso). For a given capacity point (such as the 10K user VM), the virtual hardware specs represent the minimum for that capacity point. The Cisco online documentation states that if the server is on the VMware Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) and the server meets the minimum CPU requirements, then I should be good to go. 10.5 and later
NOTE: support varies by app and version.
ESXi contains several optimizations for real-time applications and is therefore what Cisco will support. Old versions of Call Manager (CUCM) were running on Windows Servers. Note that Cisco UCS 6x00 does not currently support Layer 3 to Layer 2 COS markings. UCCE and CWMS have restrictions here). See vMotion for what is supported. Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. This section only clarifies technical support for VMware vSphere ESXi features. Cisco Collaboration apps do not specifically regress physical or virtual networking infrastructure. in a maintenance window, not in production, not processing live traffic. Select the toplevel SKU for a new HX Edge cluster (which will contain HX Edge nodes and required software subscriptions) and cluster node model HX-E-220M5SX, quantity 2. Which method to use: Early versions of the Collaboration applications required a COP file in order to upgrade the VMware Tools. Required VM count for software redundancy will fit on pair of BE6000M (M5) appliances. When deployment on a BE6000S server and version is 11.0 or higher, capacity is limited to 150 users/ 300 devices and design must follow BE6000S requirements in, vCPU/vRAM increases alone do not increase supported capacity, max density per cluster node or max scale per cluster. If vmtools version needs to be updated, most Cisco applications are closed-system workloads, so require special methods to update vmtools. The following applies to any use of vMotion with UC apps:
For deployments leveraging NAS/SAN storage and FCoE (such as UC on UCS B-Series / C-Series connected to Cisco 6x00 Fabric Interconnect Switches), a QoS-capable softswitch (like Cisco Nexus 1000V or alternatives) is strongly recommended. Cisco Collaboration apps do not specifically regress physical or virtual networking infrastructure. Another alternative is manual Virtual Machine shutdown and migration. (Usually, the VMware Tools tar file is called linux.iso). See the Install and Upgrade guide for Cisco Unified Intelligence Center 11.0 and later for more details.) Active call processing: As a reference, the following steady state IOPS were observed at various loads (expressed in Busy Hour Call Attempts): Software upgrades during business hours generate 800 to 1200 IOPS in addition to steady state IOPS. Used to preserve the state of a VM without copying or creating additional VMs, effectively as a backup/restore or reversion technique. Multiple Physical NICs and vNICs
Symptom: In the document Upgrade and Migration Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager and the IM and Presence Service, Release 12.5(1) under the section of Virtual Machine Configuration, in Table 5.Virtual Machine Requirements, Item "VM configuration virtual hardware specifications" you can find the following statement: "Any changes to a VM must align with the OVA configuration. C240 M5SX chassis will be used for up to 24 hard disk slots, which allows lower-cost HDD to be used (vs. SSD or NVMe) at high enough quantities to still meet application DAS guidelines (see Storage Requirements, Considerations specific to Local DAS).
Virtual Appliance Packaging of UC apps
See the Business Edition 6000/7000 documentation for more details. This example will use a minimum build of 3x SAS 1.2 TB. Values greater than 2ms may cause performance problems. Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. For UC apps, an easier suggested alternative is to just perform manual VM shutdown and migration to the new SAN.
IBM Cloud and others are not supported). Not supported.
Redundant physical network access links (e.g. Cisco Unity Connection
for planned maintenance on the server or VMware software, or during troubleshooting to move software off of a physical server having issues. Restart Virtual Machine on Different ESXi Host.
Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. For simplicity, this example will use a pair of Intel Xeon 6242 CPUs (16C/2.8 GHz) which will support all applications' "large" capacity points ("medium" for Expressway) in this example. Cisco Collaboration apps do not prescribe or proscribe individual ESXi patches and updates. Use the following procedure to perform this upgrade. Fast manual server recovery, e.g. (Yes How does the Cisco docwiki section 3.2 on page X apply to Nutanix? Supported capacity and co-residency rules for UC must be followed before and after the migration. Migration offer ends July 31st. To migrate from bare-metal servers (e.g. If VSA is desired to be used as shared storage for a virtualized Cisco Collaboration deployment, it must meet the storage requirements for UC on UCS Specs-based or 3rd-party Server Specs-based (e.g. Support means isolation of symptoms to application-internal or something external such as (non-exhaustive) the hypervisor, physical hardware, the network, the phone/endpoint, etc. Step 2 To mount the correct version of the VMware Tools software in the Guest virtual CD/DVD drive, perform the following sub-steps. Caveated Support for VMware CPU Reservations and Distributed Resource Scheduler). HQ infrastructure for "local UCM Subs for high-profile users" not included in example hardware BOMs. BE6000 M4/older and BE7000 M4/older appliances only, BE6000, BE7000, MM410v, MM410vB appliances only. Cisco recommendation is to apply the latest patches and updates recommended by VMware and your hardware vendor. VMware Dynamic Power Management
For guide to abbreviations, see At a Glance table at http://www.cisco.com/go/virtualized-collaboration. destination server must align with supported co-residency after failover occurs).
Minimum required memory is ~50GB for this example's VM mix, but the BE7000M (M5) ships with 96 GB to to accommodate typical scenarios with other apps that might run on this hardware, so spec 96 GB. E.g. "Template" in this context refers to an OVA file that defines the virtual server (but not the "workload", i.e. Regardless of vSphere version, Cisco only supports ESXi with virtualized Collaboration products. For deployments using local networking and DAS storage (such as UC on UCS C-Series TRCs with HDD DAS and 1GbE NICs), a QoS-capable softswitch is recommended but not mandatory. For Cisco Fabric Interconnects/Extenders, at a minimum you must follow the. For a given capacity point (such as the 10K user VM), the virtual hardware specs represent the minimum for that capacity point. Understanding of UCS technologies and Virtualization technologies; Responsible for upgradation of UC applications and end points like CUCM , CUC, IM&P , Jabber Clients etc. the recommendations above only apply to single cluster deployments. Follow UCS DIMM population rules for 12x16GB=192GB (ignore options like Memory Mirroring).
See each Collaboration application's documentation for any
If you are migrating from a physical server with more than 80 GB of storage space to a virtual machine with a user deployment size of either 500 or 2,000, see the Disaster Recovery System Administration Guide for more information. For simplicity, this example will use a pair of Intel Xeon 4114 CPUs (10C/2.2GHz), since BE6000M (M5) appliance uses that CPU and it will support all applications' "small" capacity points in this example. BE7000H (M5) appliance uses dual Intel Xeon 6132 CPU (14C/2.6GHz). Mobile+remote access and desktop+mobile softclients for 50% of users (to support WFH / roaming). VM Configuration Requirements
