How to install Cisco Unified CME 8.6

[Nightwolf_82]

Hi guys,

I'm in the process of installing Cisco Unified CME but stucked in the very beginning. Below are the steps I have already taken:

1. Checked CME compatibility matrix. As I have C2800NM-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M version 15.1(4)M10 IOS on my router then CME 8.6 version is compatible. 

2. Downloaded cme-151-4Mv1.zip

3. Copied cme-151-4Mv1.zip to TFTP

4. Run archive tar /xtract tftp://192.168.10.2/cme-151-4mv.zip flash:/CME

However, I got: 

%Tar checksum error in tftp://192.168.10.2/cme-151-4mv.zip 

This is I suppose because I use tar command attribute but my cme file is in zip format. But on Cisco website there is no .tar file for CME 8.6. Also it's not clear what does "CME tar bundle for version 8.6 - cme-151-4Mv1.zip" mean.

Could you please help me with is issue.

Just unzip/extract the file in laptop/desktop and copy them to router one by one .

Adding to Suresh, you can try some third party software out there and convert this whole Zip folder into a TAR and then do it that way. If not this way, then the only solution is to do each and every file individually.
