Supported Hardware
The table below lists the supported hardware for the Cisco Unified Presence multi-node feature.
Notes:
- The hardware support information in Table 1: Supported hardware for the Cisco Unified Presence Multi-node Feature applies to deployment using the Cisco Unified Presence multi-node feature only. If only single-node or dual-node configurations are being deployed, follow the general hardware compatibility guidelines in the compatibility matrix at the following URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6837/products_device_support_tables_list.html
- If you are deploying an intercluster environment, follow the hardware support information in Table 1: Supported hardware for the Cisco Unified Presence Multi-node Feature.
- Note that you can upgrade the hard drives on an older platform to run the multi-node feature. For example, if you have two older 7825H2 platforms with 80GB drives, and two new 7825H3s with 160GB drives, this is a mixed hardware platform and cannot run the multi-node feature. If you upgraded the two 7825H2 platform, each with new 160GB hard drives, then you can run the multi-node feature on this hardware.
- Upgrading drives will allow older hardware to be used in a multi-node cluster. However, it is highly recommended that you use the latest hardware available for the multi-node feature as this hardware will have more powerful CPU, more memory and faster input/output processing.

Note: The hardware guidelines described in Table 2: User Assignment Guidelines are based on Cisco Unified Presence servers configured to support presence and IM services only. These guidelines do not incorporate the activation of additional Cisco Unified Presence features such as Interdomain Federation, Presence API, Calendaring and so on.
