CUCM 8.6

[ryan-hitch]

I see that the VMWare .ova templates for creating CUCM (CallManager) images do not include a USB controller.

I tried adding the basic EHCI+UHCI controller in order to mount a  CUCM answer file (platformConfig.xml) from a USB key, however after  adding this USB controller I get an error that "This hardware  configuration is not supported" when trying to boot from a CUCM 8.6(2)  installation DVD.

The installation proceeds fine if I do not add the USB controller to my virtual machine.

Is there no way to use an answer file when building a CUCM 8.6 VMWare appliance?

Thanks!

Yes, but it's not via USB

utils import config

That would be correct. We don't support any USB functionality on CUCM running on a VM.
