With regards to the half duplex mismatch, I had experienced an issue where no matter what settings I tried (hard coding 100/full, setting auto enabled…etc), the PUB kept showing as half duplex to the 3750 switch. I reinstalled several times with no effective difference. I finally, shutdown the CUCM and
Deleted the Ethernet card in vmware and reinstalled a different E1000 card and boom! It’s now talking to the switch at 1000/full.

Hi,

I managed to install in VMWare but the call manager service and tftp service is activated and not running, I wonder what is wrong here. Licensing is ok.

@Mike , Try installing on Vmware Workstation / Server and it should work.Personally,I have not tested on Vmware ESX version.Once you install on Workstation,you can use “Vmware Converter” to transform image to your desired appliance.

@hi,@tity, Make your your NTP server is reachable from Second Node.You will require NTP for proper operation.

@v0ha,Read Enterprise Linux 3 or 4 should work just fine.I have a Dual-Core but you can contine installation with a single CPU as well

@elac,i choose only call manager option.you can choose CM with Unity connection option too and it will install fine too.

@Rich,Did you reload server after applying patch ?

@jr,use atleast 80Gigs for disk space.Web Server is enabled by default unless you disable it.You will need to activate CM services in order to accept SCCP/SIP incoming connections.After booting on your image,give it some time and GUI will eventually come up.

@ccieswe,@gopi CUCM7.0 installs natively in Vmware.You do not need any OS for it.

@Steve,you can order NFR kit from Cisco with a valid customer contract,ofcourse.CUCM disks are not downloadable via CCO,so,you will need to order them.

@Gui,Activate CCM services/TFTP server service before trying to register IP phones.This step was shown in tutorial,so,please re-view it.Secondly,enable auto-registration or create manual registrations for devices.

@ys,auto duplex should work fine.However,if you are still having duplex mismatch,try to hard-code same duplex settings which should resolve error.

@Kevin,Are you using CIPC to call in on same host machine.In that case,try using a separate IP phone(hard phone) or softphone on different PC.
