CCM5 on VMWare

rameezsardar · ‎02-26-2008

Friends,

I want to install CCM5 on vmware but my laptop hardware specifications are

not meeting. I am also working on ccm5 (MSC7835) now a day. I heard from

someone that if somehow i will make the image of ccm5 running on msc7835 and

then i can use that image with vmware on my laptop. Since ccm5 only check

the hardware at the time of installation. Please help me or tell me any

other way. As i have both MSC7835 machine and CCM5 cds but want to run on my

laptop.

Waiting for your positive response.....

Best Regards

1. CUCM 5 and up checks hardware every boot

2. the registry hack you refer to, to make the install think it is an MCS works only on windows based versions of CUCM.

3. CUCM 6 will install on VMWARE with a "demo" license. 50 DLUs and single server.

you may install CM5/CM6 on VMWare. I did that many times. but you're not going to get support from Cisco TAC on it.
