Configure all of the above with an appropriate power cord selection. Media kits only ship with appliance SKUs.
Separate SKUs for software licensing are required to actually activate and run the UC applications.
If the wrong hardware SKU is ordered (e.g. a CMB2 instead of a CMC2), contact cs-support@cisco.com to get the
order changed. Alternatively, if customer has UCSS, they can get the correct software via Product Upgrade Tool or
Voice Software Center on Cisco.com.
3. Order any onsite spares, if desired.
Some customers wish to supplement Cisco SmartNet with an onsite spare MCS 7800. Customers should order a
“bare-metal” MCS SKU from Table 32 above for this. Note that attempting to transfer UC software licenses to this
spare machine will require a “re-hosting” of license keys. Configure with the appropriate power cord.
3. Order any hardware add-ons, if desired or needed.
If customers want to make any of the following hardware add-ons, see section 5.3 below.
Add Hardware Security Key for Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Add External tape drives for backups
Add Hardware to support Cisco Unified Communications Manager Music On Hold (MoH) feature with an
external audio source
Add Memory, subject to UC application support policy
Add Hard Drives, subject to UC application support policy
Use the server vendor’s service processor, subject to UC application support policy
