Notes on 2 vCPU VM configuration

The 2 vCPU VM configuration can be used for a Primary or a Secondary Cisco MediaSense node.
Expansion nodes are not supported with this configuration. This configuration is available for deployment on the UCS-E servers. Look for details here Cisco_MediaSense_on_UCSE

Disk Requirements For a Primary or Secondary Node

Disk 1 - 80GB for O/S
Disk 2 - 80GB for Database and working storage
Disk 3 - 210 GB Minimum. Can be expanded to 12 TB

Disk Requirements For a Expansion Node

Expansion Nodes are not supported with this virtual machine configuration.

Supported Capabilities

Physical Hardware	Audio-Weight Media Streams Supported Per Node +	Concurrent API Requests Supported per non-Expansion Node	Max Call Arrival Rate per Node	Max Nodes per Cluster	Max Media Storage per Node
UCS B/C or Specs Based	40	3 + 3 queued	20 per minute	2	12 TB
SRE-910	60	3 + 3 queued	20 per minute	2	210 GB
UCS-E	40	3 + 3 queued	20 per minute	2	400 GB or 700 GB++

+ A audio call between two end points equals two Audio-Weight Media Streams.
++ Max recording storage per node on UCS E140S blades is 400GB when using 600GB SED drives, or 700GB when using 900GB 15K RPM drives.

Notes on 7 vCPU VM configuration

The 7 vCPU VM configuration can be used for a Primary, Secondary or an Expansion Cisco MediaSense node.

Disk Requirements For a Primary or Secondary Node

Disk 1 - 80GB for O/S
Disk 2 - 600GB for Database and working storage
Disk 3 - 210 GB Minimum. Can be expanded to 12 TB

Disk Requirements For a Expansion Node

Disk 1 - 80GB for O/S
Disk 2 - 80GB for Database and working storage
Disk 3 - 210 GB Minimum. Can be expanded to 12 TB

Supported Capabilities

Physical Hardware	Audio-Weight Media Streams Supported Per Node+	Concurrent API REquests Supported per non-Expansion Node	Max Call Arrival Rate per Node	Max Nodes per Cluster	Max Media Storage per Node
UCS B/C or Specs Based	400	15 + 10 queued	2 per second	5	12 TB

+ A audio call between two end points equals two Audio-Weight Media Streams.

IOPS and Storage System Performance Requirements

Summary of IOPS for Cisco MediaSense (Data from the 9.1(1) release):

	O/S Partition	Database Partition	Media Partition
Average IOPS (ops/sec)	100	1700	50
Average Bandwidth (kbytes/sec)	2000	7300	1000

-All Unified MCP servers run on VMs using the Unified Communications Operating System (Unified OS or UCOS).
-{{note| If you are using ESXi 4.1, be sure to disable Large Receive Offload (LRO) on the ESXi 4.1 host.}}
-To disable LRO, follow this procedure:
+== Version 8.5(3)  ==
-# Log into the ESXi host or its vCenter with vSphere Client.
-# Select the host > Configuration > Advanced Settings.
-# Select Net and scroll down slightly more than half way.
-# Set the following parameters from 1 to 0:
-#* Net.VmxnetSwLROSL
-#* Net.Vmxnet3SwLRO
-#* Net.Vmxnet3HwLRO
-#* Net.Vmxnet2SwLRO
-#* Net.Vmxnet2HwLRO
-# Reboot the ESXi host to activate these changes.

+== Notes on 2 vCPU VM configuration  ==
+The 2 vCPU VM configuration can be used for a Primary or a Secondary Cisco MediaSense node. <br> Expansion nodes are not supported with this configuration.
+This configuration is available for deployment on the UCS-E servers. Look for details here [[Cisco_MediaSense_on_UCSE|Cisco_MediaSense_on_UCSE]]
+=== Disk Requirements For a Primary or Secondary Node  ===
+Disk 1 - 80GB for O/S <br> Disk 2 - 80GB for Database and working storage <br> Disk 3 - 210 GB Minimum. Can be expanded to 12 TB <br>
+=== Disk Requirements For a Expansion Node  ===
+Expansion Nodes are not supported with this virtual machine configuration.
