Would anyone happen to know a good server build would be to run Cisco Prime Infrastructure for 5k in network devices. I can only find VM information and not physcial hardware specifications in regards to this.
Solved! Go to Solution.

You won't because CPI only comes in two flavours: VM and Cisco's "own" appliance.
You won't be able to build a CPI from a generic box anymore (not like WCS).
Cisco's appliance is from IBM.

and you can check the server specification from cisco and follow cisco recommended as best practice

Cisco Prime Infrastructure runs on a 64-bit, Red Hat Linux Enterprise Server 5.4 operating system. You cannot install Cisco Prime Infrastructure on a standalone operating system such as Red Hat Linux, as Cisco Prime Infrastructure is shipped as a physical or virtual appliance that comes preinstalled with a secure and hardened version of Red Hat Linux as its operating system.

Thanks everyone that have posted. I was finally able to get a hold of our VAR and they specified the same information after discussing with Cisco.
