E.g. After setup is complete, you should be able to add a phone in CM Administration (last slide). HCL, latencies, application VM capacity and performance needs). The only supported scenario is a manual move to a different server, e.g. Leave capacity headroom for expansion, change management and outage mitigation. Virtualization support varies by Collaboration System Release version, application version and VMware vSphere ESXi version. 7.x of UC apps with VMware vSphere on limited 3rd-party servers), see the following links: Co-resident application VMs are restricted: One Prime Collaboration Provisioning Small VM, One Unity Connection 1000 user VM (1vcpu). The following are not recommended as tend to be too slow: SATA disks, SAS disks with <10kbps. The Cisco DocWiki platform was retired on January 25, 2019.

Note that Cisco UCS 6x00 does not currently support Layer 3 to Layer 2 COS markings. See VMware High Availability 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. Cisco recommends to power off the VMs before the SAN replication occurs. Select a Cisco VIC model that supports the customer's network switch/fabric elements. These values are per active VM. Cisco recommendation is to apply the latest patches and updates recommended by VMware and your hardware vendor. But deploying with sum of vcpu = sum of Logical Processors in ESXi or sum of vcpu(sum of physical CPU cores) is not supported unless specifically indicated by an application. It can be used to supplement software redundancy as a means of fast, automated Failed-server recovery when a VM (but not the application) is hung or if there is a fault with the physical host server or VMware software. CUCM sending CDR/CMR to the external billing server does not incur any additional IOPS. Two blades are sufficient to provide hardware redundancy. For capacity drives, required usable space is 736GB. Assume blade will boot ESXi and applications from shared storage, so no local storage or RAID controller is required. 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. Software upgrades of the UC application will preserve the version of VMware Tools currently running. Not supported. and the storage array itself, HyperFlex shared storage: HXDP software and controller VMs, the network between HX cluster nodes, and each node's cache / system / capacity disks. Supported Versions of VMware vSphere ESXi= 6.7, 7.0 U1: Design Guide Upgrade Guide: Component & Capacity Point.

MCS-7825-H2). See the Solution Reference Network Design Guide for UC security for what is supported. Not supported. This section will give a summary support position, but for individual components see Support for Virtualization on the ESXi/UCS Platform. A Cisco Collaboration app will only specify a MAXIMUM maintenance release if there are known incompatibilitites. Also always ensure a DRS backup of the Cisco Collaboration applications is available in case there are issues with the replicated VMs. Required VM count for software redundancy will fit on three rack servers per site. Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. VM's for Applications must be deployed from, Cisco UCS with local DAS and/or 3rd-party SAN/NAS (e.g. Follow your shared storage array vendor's instructions for compatibility. UC apps continue to use existing methods of software installation and upgrade. Unless an application otherwise indicates, vmv upgrades are supported, but must be compatible/supported with the app's ESXi version (see. If the UC app is listed as "Supported with Caveats", then support is as described below: Plan for quad RAID5 volumes. This will occur automatically. for planned maintenance on the server or VMware software, or during troubleshooting to move software off of a physical server having issues. Required VM count for software redundancy will fit on 2 HX Edge nodes. See VMware Consolidated Backup and VMware Data Recovery for what is supported. Softswitches Use of Cisco Nexus 1000V is therefore strongly recommended as this is currently the only way to deterministically manage traffic congestion through the UCS 6x00. 2.00-2.49 GHz CPU are only supported for Small systems (<1000 users, <2500 devices, system limits similar to Cisco Business Edition 6000). For contribution to cluster's shared storage, follow guidelines for Cisco HyperFlex: Select a dedicated high-performance storage controller. Quote Collab tool may be used for assistance with planning applications on virtualized infrastructure. 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. Not supported. ESXi 6.7 U2, vmfs6, vmv15, vmtools 10.3.10). Upgrades from 8.x VMs with 2x80GB vdisks to 9.1 or higher are not required to change the vdisk. Always verify with server vendor if a hardware-vendor-specific ESXi image is required. VMware Feature Support for Contact Center. Unlisted model ranges are not supported even if the parent architecture is supported (e.g. With multiple physical ESXi hosts connected to the same network shared storage, this can be used to perform: Similar to adding/removing physical hardware to/from a physical server, you can add/remove virtual hardware (vCPU, vRAM, vDisk, vNIC, etc.) Cisco Collaboration apps only require vmv4 functionality, so a newer vmv is usually transparent. VMware vCenter Converter Cisco HyperFlex Spec Sheet for the chassis model of interest (HX220c, HX240c, etc.). CUCM Real Time Monitoring - Trace Collection, Alerts, System Overview. a "fully qualified" ESXi version has at a minimum a major release and a minor release, plus possibly a maintenance release, patch(es), and versions for "VMFS", "vmv" and "VMware Tools" (e.g. 1K phones per VM Use of Cisco Nexus 1000V is therefore strongly recommended as this is currently the only way to deterministically manage traffic congestion through the UCS 6x00. must show as supported on the VMware Compatibility Guide for the UCM ESXi version.

VM placement and derivation of required hardware specs. Any 3rd-party public cloud offers based on VMware Cloud Foundation (e.g. However, if Storage vMotion must be used, it is only under the following conditions: Moving a shut down VM during a maintenance window, i.e. 3rd-Party Physical To Virtual (P2V) Migration Tools E.g. See the 3rd-party's documentation (e.g. The articles in this section will cover Cisco's CallManager Express VoIP system, UC500 Series - including UC520, UC540 & UC560 configuration, setup and troubleshooting. IBM Cloud and others are not supported). Not supported. Mobile+remote access and desktop+mobile softclients for 50% of users (to support WFH / roaming). For a given capacity point (such as the 10K user VM), the virtual hardware specs represent the minimum for that capacity point. Questions? Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. Used to preserve the state of a VM without copying or creating additional VMs, effectively as a backup/restore or reversion technique. Cisco Webex Meetings Server has application-specific co-residency rules independent of physical CPU. 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). If the server is Cisco UCS, you may need to use a UCS-specific image for U3 on vmware.com. Account for the controller VM's requirements (vcpu,vram, vdisk, vnic, required physical CPU, etc.) Design assumptions, required applications, and application sizing. Three HyperFlex nodes per site are sufficient to provide hardware redundancy. Not supported. Used to preserve the state of a VM without copying or creating additional VMs, effectively as a backup/restore or reversion technique. Server Vendor's hardware compatiblity information for the vSphere ESXi Major/Minor version required by Cisco Collaboration. Supported capacity and co-residency rules for UC must be followed before and after the migration. VMware Fault Tolerance VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB) 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. Each virtualized UC product provides a set of predefined virtual machine templates (as OVA files) for supported Virtual Machine (VM) configurations. Not supported. a. Right-click the virtual machine that you are upgrading, and choose Guest > Install/Upgrade VMware Tools. Required usable space is 664GB. Then at a later time, you may upgrade the ESXi software to version 4.1 or migrate the vm to a host running ESXi 4.1 - once running on the different ESXi version, you will need to upgrade the VMware Tools running in your UC application to match the host it is running on. NOTE: support varies by app and version. Cisco MediaSense Method Not supported for other applications. Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) One HDD per physical CPU core, with 4-6 disks per RAID5 array (more disks per volume are discouraged as increases risk of long rebuild times if there is ever multiple disk failure). VMware Data Recovery b. Cisco Collaboration apps do not require or even use most of the new features in new vmv versions (e.g. Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. The following applies to any use of vMotion with UC apps: Which VMs are active, and how many are active simultaneously, depends on how the CUCM cluster nodes are setup with respect to service activation, redundancy groups, etc. Go back to: Virtualization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM), VM Configuration Requirements For example, initial deployment of the OVA and UC application may have been done on ESXi 4.0 update 1. A Cisco HyperFlex Data Platform Edge Edition 1 Yr Subscription is required for each node in the cluster. Minimum required memory is ~50GB. Plan to have at least two hardware nodes for redundancy. Each HyperFlex node will require a HyperFlex Data Platform (HXDP) storage controller VM of 8vcpu, in addition to the application VMs. See vMotion for what is supported. Restart Virtual Machine on Different ESXi Host. Cisco recommends to power off the VMs before the SAN replication occurs. then Cisco will provide support for ESXi. Cisco Collaboration Virtualization Click on an application name to view its virtualization support. Minimum required memory is 30GB. Follow your compute vendor's instructions for compatibility. Disks must be supported by the hardware vendor. NOTE: support varies by app and version. Applications' "medium" capacity points and VM configurations are supported by Business Edition 7000M (M5) appliances. SIP trunks. Otherwise same guidelines as for RAID5. Could have considered all BE7000M, but this would not have met minimal server count requirement. Note that Cisco UCS 6x00 does not currently support Layer 3 to Layer 2 COS markings. To migrate from bare-metal servers (e.g. I.e. All these uses are supported for UC but note that UC apps like CUCM and UCCX only support a single vNIC with a single IP address. The "storage system" is defined as all hardware and software end-to-end required for the UCM virtual machine's vdisk to be available to the application. for Cisco UCS, see the Server Compatiblity documents at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/ps10477/prod_technical_reference_list.html. Not supported. For multi-site scenarios, this may instead require "exporting" the VM. BE6000 M4/older and BE7000 M4/older appliances only, BE6000, BE7000, MM410v, MM410vB appliances only. (Usually, the VMware Tools tar file is called linux.iso). Otherwise disable LRO is optional. Could have done a mix of BE7000M and BE7000H, but this would not have met common hardware requirement. vCenter Statistics Level 4 logging is mandatory so that Cisco TAC is able to provide effective support. Note Backup and restore for Cisco Collaboration applications are not supported on soft media. via Distributed Resource Scheduler [DRS]), a few applications have caveated support (see here for details); otherwise it is not supported. Before reading the best practices below, verify support at Supported Editions and Features of VMware vSphere ESXi, VMware vCenter and VMware vSphere Client. E.g. To date, Cisco has not discovered any issues with Collaboration apps due to a newer vmv version. Please note the following caveats: Updates are performed automatically. Cisco physical / virtual networking infrastructure is presumed transparent to Collaboration workloads. MCS 7825). Plan for a B200 M5 blade that emulates the specs of Business Edition 7000M (M5) appliance. "Maintenance mode only" - VMware vMotion by definition operates on live VMs, but the VM running the UC app must be "live but quiescent". VMware.com comparison of vSphere editions (available on this web page at time of this writing: General-purpose licenses may be customer-provided instead of purchased from Cisco. See vMotion for what is supported. Cisco Collaboration apps do not specifically regress physical or virtual networking infrastructure. Not supported. Choose Device Type as Client Device. "Maintenance mode only" - VMware vMotion by definition operates on live VMs, but the VM running the UC app must be "live but quiescent". This page has been updated to reflect compatibility with the latest M5 hardware. Customers can use these multiple NICs for VM network traffic, VMware console access, or management "back-doors" for administrative access, backups, software updates or other traffic that is desired to be segregated from the VM network traffic. in a maintenance window, not in production, not processing live traffic. NOTE: support varies by app and version. Consider SSD pairs of sufficient usable space. Note that vdisk partition alignment is affected only by not using the Cisco-provided OVA for initial install or reinstall of a VM. VMware High Availability (HA) Migration offer ends July 31st. Not supported. Required VM count for software redundancy will fit on pair of BE7000M (M5) appliances. See each Collaboration application's documentation for any VM can be installed on DAS and source/destination physical servers can have different DAS yet still vMotion the VM. I.e. 5.1 U1) if required by its guest OS or for hardware compatibility. For capacity drives, required usable space is ~1TB. Failovers to other servers must not result in an unsupported deployment model (e.g. This example will use a HyperFlex hybrid storage cluster of HX220C-M5SX nodes that emulates the specs of Business Edition 7000H (M5) appliance. 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. Assume new buildout (no compute, storage or virtualization infrastructure exists yet for Collaboration). No reboot is required. E.g. Caveated Support for VMware CPU Reservations and Distributed Resource Scheduler). Not supported. for planned maintenance on the server or VMware software, or during troubleshooting to move software off of a physical server having issues. See Resize Virtual Machine instead. This is because during the vMotion cutover, the system is paused, which for real-time UC apps creates service interruption which degrade voice quality after the migration for calls in progress. E.g. NOTE: support varies by app and version. Customers seeking capacity increases should migrate all cluster nodes to a higher fixed capacity point as described in the, All cluster nodes must get the same vCPU/vRAM increase. 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. Specifically for Cisco Unified Attendant Consoles, this means the CUxAC VM must not be doing any Hot Swap or taking any active calls, with no active Directory Synchronization in progress. To translate to hardware BOM, use QuoteCollab's tallied required hardware specs with the Cisco HyperFlex. This will be sufficient for the typical network load of this VM mix. For capacity drives, required usable space is ~1.6TB. IBM Cloud and others are not supported). Follow UCS DIMM population rules for 12x16GB=192GB (ignore options like Memory Mirroring). For a given application/release, use ONLY the supported method(s) to upgrade the tools. Redundant physical network access links (e.g. (Yes How does the Cisco docwiki section 3.2 on page X apply to Nutanix?

CCNP Collaboration - 350-801 CLCOR, 300-810 CLICA, 300-815 CLACCM. Applications are sized with redundant VMs. Used to preserve the state of a VM without copying or creating additional VMs, effectively as a backup/restore or reversion technique. To migrate from bare-metal servers (e.g. VMware Snapshots Otherwise, follow your HCI vendor's instructions for sizing and compatibility. Step 1 Edit the VM settings by clicking on the Options tab, and select VMware tools. Not supported. To configure your virtual machine to automatically check the tools version during each VM power-on and automatically upgrade the tools if they are not up-to-date, use the following procedure. Amazon Web Services [AWS], Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform and others are not supported). Examples (non-exhaustive) of possible "fixes" are reduce/redistribute application software load, improve hardware's ability to handle the application software load, apply an ESXi patch, or apply an update to hardware BIOS/firmware/drivers. 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. Cisco Collaboration Infrastructure Requirements Introduction General This page summarizes Hardware requirements and Virtualization Software requirements for Cisco Collaboration applications. VDP in vSphere ESXi 5.1 replaces "VDR" (vSphere Data Recovery / VMware Data Recovery) in prior ESXi releases: see http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2016565. Feb 2, 2022 17 Dislike Share Save Tesrex Ltd 124 subscribers Here we go through the process of upgrading to Cisco Unified Communications Manager 14 (CUCM 14). Not supported for other applications. you want to upgrade from 5.0 to 5.0 U3. See the documentation for the UC application software or UC appliance software to see what is supported. Assume campus network already exists (Catalyst and ISR based, with PSTN, WAN and Internet connections) and passes VOIP readiness assessment. You can run the HyperFlex Sizer (partner-level access) to doublecheck if HX cluster will accommodate, then add more capacity disks as needed. Cisco 7800 Series Media Convergence Server) to UC on UCS, the supported procedure is: For real-time load-balancing of live UC VMs (e.g. Single application cluster for UCM, IMP, CER, Expressway. May only be done during a maintenance window with UC VMs shut down. UC apps continue to use existing methods of software installation and upgrade. Also note that enablement of specific VMware vSphere management features may require vCenter and/or a higher feature Edition of vSphere ESXi. Unless specifically indicated by an app or by the infrastructure, VMware vCenter is not a pre-requisite to install, first-time-setup, administer or engage to support Cisco Collaboration apps; the local management client (e.g. VSA is not really a "feature" but rather a storage product from VMware. No version downgrades. 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. Here are some example questions: Will Cisco support this? Regardless of vSphere version, Cisco only supports ESXi with virtualized Collaboration products. Required VM count for software redundancy will fit on pair of rack servers. 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. ), 3rd-party blade/rack compute with local DAS or 3rd-party SAN/NAS. 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. Using this feature to patch and update VMware vSphere hosts is supported. Cisco UCS servers use "soft media" such as ISO or FLP (virtual floppy) for procedures that require external media (such as installation and upgrade). Component & Capacity Point. Application technical documentation will indicate if they support open-vmtools. BE7000M (M5) appliance uses Intel Xeon 6132 CPU (14C/2.6GHz). NOTE: support varies by app and version. VSA is not really a "feature" but rather a storage product from VMware. 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. See vMotion for what is supported. C220 M5SX chassis will be used for up to 10 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). Any 3rd-party public cloud offers based on VMware Cloud Foundation (e.g. The administrators could easily install on top, other applications, server roles etc., which made the Call Manager unstable and of course increasing support requests to Cisco. If the UC app is listed as "Partial" support, then support is "maintenance mode only" as described below: Cisco Collaboration apps do not prescribe or proscribe individual ESXi patches and updates. Does not protect vs. faults with the SAN or network hardware. Existing UC app methods of backing up the software continue to be supported. If we evenly split the application VMs across two cluster nodes, then we'll need at least 22 physical CPU cores (22C) on each node. VMware Cloud on Dell EMC VxRail, Amazon AWS Outposts, Microsoft Azure Stack, GKE On-prem and others are not supported). VDP in vSphere ESXi 5.1 replaces "VDR" (vSphere Data Recovery / VMware Data Recovery) in prior ESXi releases: see http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2016565.
