Is HP DL320-G6 is working with CCM 4.3?

Dears,

I have 3 Cisco CallManager clusters with 6 MCS-7825-H3 servers, I just want to buy another server as spear part in case any server crash.

But I found in HP only one server DL320-G6 (which is obsolete).

Can anyone confirm is that server will work with CCM 4.3 or not, I didn't find it in data sheet:

Thanks for advice.

Tamer,

Looks are G5s are the latest CUCM 4.3 supported, G6 will most likely fail hardware compatibility check and not install.

Thanks Chris, I found that in Cisco documents.

But what do you think if we removed both hard disks from old MCS-7825-H3 server and plug them in DL320-G6...

That can work?

Good question, technically it should, the only issue I see is if you tried to patch it, but since there is not more patches being delivered for Windows based CUCM you should not need to worry about that.

Actually I should buy this server DL320-G6 for thousands of dollars, so I'm discussing here this point to not go for buying such server and become not supported and I don't use it.
