Hi,

Need your help in according to Cisco UC Management Suite portfolio.

- Cisco Unified Operations Manager 2.2 (CUOM)

- Cisco Unified Service Monitor 2.2 (CUSM)

- Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager 1.3 (CUPM)

- Cisco Unified Service Statistics Manager 1.2 (CUSSM)

1.

Is it possible to run all these Windows 2003 server applications on the same

hardware server/box in the implementation of up to 1000 phones and up to 1000 devices ?

The question is born in according to the picture I've attached here.

2.

Do I need special Cisco-approved Windows 2003 Server or it'll be sufficient any OEM one ?

3.

As newbie in UC Management theme I also wonder why it isn't possbile to live without

UC Management Suite and use only Cisco CUCM's BAT (for provisioning) and RTMT (for monitoring) ?

I mean, don't you think UC Management Suite is an excess and unnecessary entity ?

Thank you.
