Hardware and Software Requirements

This section describes the hardware and software requirements for Cisco Unified Attendant Console

Advanced server and Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced client.

Server Requirements

In a production environment, Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced server runs in either a:

• Physical server, with the requirements shown below.

• VMware environment compliant with Cisco’s Specification-Based Hardware Support program. For

details of the requirements, see VMware Server Requirements, page 3-5.

Physical Server Hardware Requirements

Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced server has the following minimum physical server hardware

requirements:

• 2.2 GHz Pentium 4 processor

• 4 GB RAM

• 72 GB of available hard disk space

• Network card, connected to the network using TCP/IP

Note The following points:

• NIC teaming is not supported.

• Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced server is not supported in a production environment if

running on a desktop PC.

• If you plan to implement Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced server resilience, you must

ensure that the date time and time zone on your Publisher and Subscriber servers are synchronized.

Both servers must be in the same time zone to ensure that any daylight-saving time changes occur

simultaneously. If they are not in the same time zone, the operator console will be unable to

automatically reconnect to the Publisher when it recovers from failure.
