Hello Friends,
Our company is thinking on installing CUCM 8.6 on VM Ware.
We wanted to explore CUCM 8.6 availability on Virtual Platform
Can someone guide us as to which platform should we go with and how do we go about it (Installation and configuration).
If anyone has a guide for the same would be grate if you could share it.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi ,
Vmware ( ESXi ) is required for virtulization. And UCS is Hardware.
CUCM on Vmware means , you will install ESXi (Vmware) hypervisor on UCS ( Hardware server just like other servers ) and install CUCM application over this ESXi.

Hello Ronak,
Thanks for the prompt reply..
So if in case we are planning to install CUCM on VMware then we will have to first procure a UCS server, install the VMware ESXi on it and then install the CUCM on the VMware.......correct me if I am wrong.
Plus can you help me with the hardware specs required for the same.

Hello Ronak,
Also would appreciate if you let us know about the UCS hardware vendor...
Like in MCS servers only IBM and HP manufacture the hardware.....similarly for UCS how many different manugfacturers ar there?
