Cisco BE6k Redundancy

[jamesbruce]

Hi,

We have a client currently running a BE6k with cucm and unity connection ver 9.1.x on a cisco ucs m3 server We would like to add a second BE6k with cucm and unity for redundancy for both cucm and unity.  I understand I will need to upgrade existing deployment first to 11.x. Is there a guide that illustrates how to add the second be6k to form a cluster for both cucm and unity? I've looked, but have been unable to find a clear guide on doing so. If anyone has a link, please reply, thanks

There is nothing special about clustering a 6K, the same procedure you follow with any other CUCM/CUC deployment applies.

so upgrade existing to ver 11.x, set up and install second be6k but when installing cucm and unity you simply do not choose the first serer option?

Yes, that's basically it, in a nutshell. Same install documents you use for any other CUCM/CUC deployment apply, and should be followed.
