Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Notes on Call+VXML Server VM configuration

(top)

The following deployments and Unified CVP components have not been qualified and are not supported in virtualization:

  • H323 Call flow Deployment
  • Distributed VXML Server and Call Server deployment where each server runs on a separate VM
  • All in one lab deployment with small reporting server.

    Note: Unified CVP components are supported on the UCS platform only in a virtualized environment with ESXi server.

    Depending on design requirements, the Media Server component may either be hosted in this VM, or run in a separate VM (see Notes on Media Server VM configuration).

    • Notes on Reporting Server VM configuration

    (top)

    The creation of the virtual machine for the Reporting Server requires a large virtual disk size. Max disk size for a single VM to be 438GB for the large reporting server. Steps to configure the ESXi for CVP Reporting server to RAID10 found at CVP Reporting Server Configuration.

    Notes on Operations Console VM configuration

    (top)

    None.

    Notes on Media Server VM configuration

    (top)

    The Media Server component may either run inside the Call+VXML Server VM or run in a separate VM.

    If it runs in a separate VM, it can either use the same VM configuration as the Operations Console or be a customer-tailored VM configuration (since this is a 3rd-party VM).

    Notes on UCS Tested Reference Configuration and Specs-based Support

    (top)

    The EOS notice for the Cisco Business Edition 7000M server does not apply to the C220M3SFF TRC (SKU: UCUCS-EZ-C220M3S) or C240M3S TRC #1 (SKU: UCUCS-EZ-C240M3S. The C220M3SFF TRC and C240M3S TRC #1 will continue to be sold until these M3 TRC servers are EOS.

    When the hardware support is specified as "Yes (See details)", the following exceptions exist, as applicable to the TRC or Specs-based policy referenced: The UCS M4 generation of C series servers is supported for use with any version of the Cisco Unified CVP where the UCS M3 TRCs are supported as long as the firmware 2.0(9c) and later applied on the UCS C M4 series.

    IOPS and Storage System Performance Requirements

    (top)

    Windows Server 2016:

    IOPS metrics measured in peak load conditions with failover:

    CVP Server Average Max 95th Percentile
    Call Server/ VXML Servers/ Media Servers 50 120 73
    Reporting Server 95 150 120
    Operation Server 10 30 20

    Read/Write Ratio:

    CVP Server Average Max 95th Percentile
    Call Server/ VXML Servers/ Media Servers 40/2673 2989/5723 41/2672
    Reporting Server 30/700 1231/3349 138/3221
    Operation Server 12/15 107/94 67/79
