Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification 1 Overview The purpose of this document is to specify the hardware and system software compatible with and required for the Cisco Unified Intelligent Contact Management (Unified ICM) and Cisco Unified Contact Center (Unified CC) products 1 for Release 7.5(1) and subsequent 7.5(x) maintenance releases (MR).
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification the system sizing and configuration limitation information contained herein should be considered as guidelines which are applicable to the vast majority of customers, but which might also have exceptions.
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification 2 References Cisco Unified Intelligent Contact Management / Unified Contact Center Enterprise and Hosted product information can be found on www.cisco.com. Product documentation, including planning, upgrade, install, configuration, reporting, reference, and developer documentation, is available at Cisco Product Support.
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification 3 Servers for Cisco Contact Center Products The Unified ICM/Contact Center solutions are fully supported on the Cisco 7800 Series Media Convergence Server (MCS) family of Intel-based, high performance hardware servers.
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification 3.1 Server Hardware Configuration Guidelines This section provides system integrators and customers with guidelines, supported and unsupported server hardware, and storage configurations. Cisco MCS servers pre-package a number of the specified options; however, Cisco Unified ICM and Unified CC applications require special consideration to meet the high performance demands of the system.
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification Note: Severe network communication problems are likely when 10/100 Mbps NICs and switch ports are not BOTH explicitly set to the capable speed in Full Duplex operation. Cisco highly recommends the use of gigabit (1000 Mbps) server network interface cards and gigabit network switches.
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification • Multiple external storage enclosures are desirable (when needed) for increased performance and fault tolerance. • External storage enclosures with dedicated RAID controllers are supported with MCS server systems. Supported configurations: • Fibre Channel is supported only in a point-to-point topology deployment.
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification 3. The SAN host interface (for example, Fibre Channel) must meet or exceed the performance specifications of supported (direct attached) SCSI/SAS interfaces (see Storage Hardware, Required Controllers, above). 4. Each individual drive in the SAN array must meet or exceed the performance specifications of supported (direct attached) disk drives (see Storage Hardware, Disk Speed, above).
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification 4 Software Upgrade and Installation Considerations Upgrading a Unified ICM/Contact Center installation from Release 5.0 or 6.0 requires that you first upgrade the entire system to 7.0(0) SR4. You can then install the 7.5(1) release (and subsequent maintenance releases) on your (upgraded) 7.0(0) SR4 system. This section describes the considerations for the upgrade process. 4.
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification subsequent version updates beyond 7.1(x), either major or minor versions; subsequent versions require Windows Server 2003 or R2 as a prerequisite to their installation. Although PGs are supported back two previous versions, to eliminate defects and add feature enhancements, the PGs should be upgraded to the same version as the Central Controller.
Cisco Unified ICM/Contact Center Enterprise & Hosted Editions, Release 7.5, Hardware and System Software Specification The documented procedures for upgrading to Unified ICM/Contact Center Release 7.5(1) require a starting baseline of Unified ICM/Contact Center 7.0(0) SR4, running on the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 (or R2) SP2 operating system with Microsoft SQL Server 2000 (SP4). Upgrade customers currently deploying releases earlier than release 7.
