[Kelly Dodd]

What are the differences between the 2 OVA's available for download in CUCM 8.6?

They are:

cucm_8.6_vmv7_v1.5.ova

cucm_8.6_vmv8_v1.5.ova

V8 is for ESXi 5.0 and v7 is for ESXi 4.X.

HTH,

Hi,

Chris is spot on, (+5 C)

Read me for

2.0 Scope

The CUCM template is an OVA (open virtual archive) file that can be
imported/deployed using the OVF (open virtualization format) support
of VMware.  The OVA file defines the following for the virtual machine
based on the deployment selected:

- Number of virtual CPUs (minimum of Nehalem class CPU)
- Amount of RAM
- Number and size of hard disks
- ESXi support: ESXi 4.0 (VM version 7) and beyond
- OS support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (32-bit)

Ok, thanks to both of you.

Missed that in the readme.  Last time I reviewed it in the Wiki, ESXi 5 was not supported.
