Can I install CM on a MCS-7825-H1-ECS1?

Hi

Can I install CM on a MCS-7825-H1-ECS1? as the ECS typically is for Unity so not sure if the HW is compatible as Cisco tends to be sometimes specific on which box to install CM on. Thx

Hi Anthony,

You are on the right track here :) The MCS-7825-ECS1 is not supported for CCM installations;

Check out Table 3;

Plus it has been EOS/EOL

Hope this helps!

The HW discs for CM will not run on ECS platform. Though you can install CM the non supported way. Install Windows like you install it for Unity using ECS platform disks and then apply the registry hack and then install Callmanager on it.

Of course this wont be supported by Cisco TAC.
