TMS and virtual VCS

Hello

I know that the VCS and TMS can be virtualized.

On the documentation, I found that the VCS can be deployed on the same host as the other virtual machines (cohabitation) following some guidelines for sizing (resourses must be allocated 1:1, it means that there is no excess applications).

I also read that MSDS can also be virtualized, following the same guidelines of resources:

"Cisco TMS can be installed in a virtualized server environment as long as the virtual machine by a Cisco TMS is allocated sufficient resources dedicated to meet the requirements of server and hardware for installation. The resources allocated to the Cisco TMS server instance must be dedicated and not shared with other instances of server. ""

What I do not know if the TMS accepst co-residensy with other applications. Which makes me doubt is:

"Cisco TMS is resource intensive with specific server requirements, which increase with the level of activity and the size of the managed network video. With the help of a server that hosts other applications or Web sites for accommodation Cisco TMS is therefore not supported. "

I don't know if this means that non-corresidensy is supported or that no other application in addition to TMS must be deployed on the same OS.

What I really want to accomplish with it is to virtualize the TMS, the VCS Highway and control of the VCS on the same server of UCS. Would it be supported by TAC?

Kind regards

Hi, this means that the TMS server should be dedicated to the application of TMS. No other hosted applications should be present on the same OS.

Hope that helps.

  • TMS, VCS and Jabbber "impossible to connect to the TMS on the VCS agent".

    Dear,

    We have Cisco TMS, VCSC and jabber deployment, we did before commissioning the VCSC and TMS and jabber worked well, but after the upgrade the VCSC v7.2 to jabber version 8.2 has stopped working and I can not connect more and when I go to the TMS and connect to the VCS I get "unable to connect to the TMS on the VCS agent" Please notify

    What TMS version do you use?  And you are using Extension of provisioning of the TMS (TMSPE)?

    Looks like you are using TMS Agent Legacy, which has been supported in VCS X7.2 and has since been removed from X8.1.  You will need to migrate to TMSPE and very probably upgrade your server TMS as well if you do not meet the minimum version.

    Cisco TMSPE 1.0 Deployment Guide

    Here's the guide deployment for TMSPE 1.0, there are newer versions, but 1.0 is one that you want to migrate from legacy Agent TMS.  Once installed and migrate your data, you can then go to the most recent version, which is 1.4 (see below).

  • VCS - C cluster and Cluster VCS-E with Movi 4.6 register and call interruption

    Hi all

    We have VCS - C cluster and Cluster VCS-E with Movi 4.6 register and call interruptions. The point is, if the appeal or record comes from the Internet. We have the sip proxy model vcse--> vcs - c record. The strange point is, if run us in mode not cluster with only 1 vcs - c, then the call works very well or so over 1 minute. We also have findme. The call internal registered locally (VCSC) works as well) the case appears if the active VCS - c cluster and the movi has been listed in the subzone of the crossing of VCS - c
    VCS versions are x.7.2.2 and tms 14.2.2
    Thx for your comments

    Hi friend

    The issue you are experiencing is a known limit of Jabber of telepresence. This happens when registration of the device is transmitted by proxy to the VCS control, where VCS are clusters. Probably what is happening:

    -Jabber client records through the fast track to a control in the area of the highway crossing.

    -L' check requires authentication

    -When the customer registers again every minute (registration of SIP (re) process normal), the registration request is sent to one of the other controls in the cluster.

    -The customer then completes the current record and authenticates back to the other control

    -The client (Jabber) will tear down the ongoing call when there is re - authenticate registration

    This problem is resolved in the current version for Jabber for iPad. The current version of Jabber for TelePresence still has this problem. Default: CSCud17952

    Thank you.

    Hi zizou.

    You can include a device VCS with a VCS VM as long as their matches of software and their hardware platforms have equivalent capabilities.

    Device VCS clustered with VCS VM running on core 2 MediumVM = YES

    VCS machine clustered with VCS VM running on 8 cores LargeVM = No.

    "you can even cluster that are running on the standard devices with peers running on core 2 Medium VMs, but you can not group a peer running on a standard unit with peers running on base 8 large virtual machines.

  • Possible to have the physical and virtual units of ESA in the same group?

    Given the scarcity of available information about virtual appliances, anyone have any ideas if it is possible to run a physical C160 and a C300V running the same version of ASyncOS in the same cluster.  I need to migrate from physical to virtual and has been evalualting the possbilty of the migration to the C300V from the C160 by adding a C300V to a cluster and then decommissioning the C160.

    Someone know about this?

    Thank you

    Nathan-

    Yes.  You can, as long as the appliance and virtual appliance running the same AsyncOS.  The "clusterconfig" command will work in the same exact way.  You need to just make sure that your C300V has the featurekeys loaded in order to run the cluster.

  • Don't port look for a printer in windows xp mode and virtual PC

    Have an older Calcomp plotter.  Used with Win xp.  The drivers are not compatible with windows 7 (64).  Upgrade to Win 7 Professional, downloaded xp mode and virtual PC.  All right.  Installed my plotter in xp Mode, but can't seem to find the plotter to printer usb port is connected to.  Knowledge tracer works because as I tried different ports, the test print on my HP printer that is set up a home network.  Reading the different instructions, but they are above my head.   Have HP touchsmart w / three usb ports on the back.  One of these ports to connect printer.  I think I need to make a set to the top of USB devices in xp mode, but do not understand what I have to do.  Anyone using xp mode and windows virtual PC with windows 7 that can simply explain it would be appreciated greatly.

    Hello Unknown69,

    To be able to download the XP Mode and Virtual PC for Windows 7, first of all, it performs a validation check to verify that the version of Windows that you are using is genuine.

    If you download and allow it to check, once your computer is validated you will be able to download the files in XP Mode and Virtual PC.

    I hope this helps.

  • TMS and SQL 2008 R2

  • Question TMS and conductor - conferences to improve safety by using conference

    Hi people,

    Currently, I implement some projects involving Cisco Telepresence conductor and I was wondering the benefits that conductor brings to the video network, it's really a great solution!

    Discover the benefits of the conductor, I created the following deployment:

    It works very well! The customer is very satisfied with the level of security when using this deployment. Their multi-point conferences is safer now.

    Well, when I created this topology I considered not how the environment would work when planning conferences, with TMS and conductor because this client has yet to TMS. Then, I was just shocked when I opened the TMS deployment guide e conductor and find the following statement:

    Note: The exposed conductor TelePresence conference type is not supported in Cisco TMS. Only models conference using the conference meeting type are supported.

    Page 13 - http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/telepresence/infrastructure/tms/config_guide/TelePresence_Conductor_with_Cisco_TMS_Deployment_Guide_XC1-2_TMS14-1.pdf

    I almost jumped the bridge... Now, I know that my great topology no longer works with TMS.

    Well, here are my questions:

    Why do we have this limit?

    That Cisco plans to fix this?

    The guide is related to the conductor XC1-2 and 14-1 TMS, something has changed in TMS 14.2.2 and XC2.1?

    I'd appreciate any help really, really!

    Thanks in advance.

    Agreed! The driver of the telepresence really is a great product.

    Why do we have this limitation?

    Because the feature was never implemented on the side TMS. It was decided that the other characteristics are more important and should be a priority. There is nothing on the type of conference 'Read' which is inherently incompatible with the TMS, but work needs to be done first.

    Examples:

    • The control of conference centre: you will probably see the entries in double Conference if you are using a 'read' conference
    • TMS does not differentiate between the presidents and guests during the creation of scheduled conferences 'Conference' on the conductor.

    None of them are very difficult to solve from a development point of view, but they are not trivial to apply or test either.

    Does Cisco have plans to fix that?

    Nothing specific is planned, don't. As always: if it is a problem to your customer, make a request to feature through your account manager or another Cisco point of contact.

    The guide is related to Conductor XC1-2 and TMS 14-1, has any thing been changed  in TMS 14.2.2 and XC2.1?

    Conductor XC 2.1 and TMS 14.2.2 is a combination not supported, but nothing has been changed to

    2.2 XC and 14.3 TMS: types of conference 'Read' are not yet supported.

  • Script to collect some statistics on hosts and virtual machines

    I'm trying to accomplish to get the following statistics, put into a script.

    When I run this script, it must be run by "vcenter" and result the following items.

    The cluster name / number of hosts / number of computers models and virtual / assigned the total memory of all the virtual machines on the cluster (not what is actually to be in use)

    Thus, for example, in the XYZ group with 4 guests, if I have 20 MV that I have 4 GB of RAM for each virtual machine, the output should be 80 GB

    XYZ 4 20 80 GB

  • Management of VMs: Which one to use, "hosts and Clusters" or "models and virtual computers.

    Hi all

    As the subject says, when you manage virtual machines, which is better to use? Hosts and Clusters? Models and virtual computers?

    It's our facility:

    Previously we had only been using "Hosts and Clusters" manage all of our virtual machines. We organize objects of the individual within vApps and Resource Pools. We had also installation on these both parent objects permissions for who has access to what.

    Basically, we have about 12 members. Everyone has their own virtual machines that they use for training, etc. We manage centralized via AD with users and groups user access. We also have some users assigned to some hosts to maintain the level of things between the two hosts. Our license does not DRS, BTW.

    I just replaced our server vCenter in preparation for our 4.1 vSphere upgrade later this year, Yes, we are on vSphere 4.0 currently. So I went ahead and 'computers models and virtual"allowing to create user folders, gave users access and placed virtual machines of all users within these folders. (I heard recently that the use of the hosts and Clusters was semantically incorrect). Even if they have access to their folder, they cannot create a virtual machine because they cannot access a host. A computer file virtual and models can be assigned to a host?

    I didn't assign permissions to each user in order to add to each host, because I didn't want others to mess with other virtual machines. All users previously red access only, but sinc the virtual machines and templates folders are not assigned to any host, they can get in their folder to create and manage their virtual machines.

    Then, I go on this wrong all the models and virtual computers and do I just keep using our hosts and Clusters of installation above permissions groups?

    Any advice on the semantics in this would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Johnathan

    All,

    I solved my problems.

    Check book Scott Lowes ' Mastering VMware vSphere 4 "Chapter 9, he described the use of Resource Pools to the VM group under the view of the hosts & Clusters. Using the same names as the files under VMs & models and adding the same permissions, I was able to force every user to use their own folder under VMs & templates and only their Resource Pool under hosts & Clusters. So now the two views reflect the objects of each user and their access controls are correct.

    Items to remove this Lessines:

    Use Of Resource Pools under host & Clusters to manage the default host for users.

    Files under VMs & models allows you to manage virtual machines model announcement for each user (simple view).

    Thanks for the help,

    Johnathan

  • Difference between the hosts and virtual machines

    Happy new year!

    I guess that's a stupid question, but I don't know the answer to it.

    I created pools from VM. Some jobs in the pool are hosts and some virtual machines. What is the difference between the hosts and virtual machines. I thought I could only create virtual machines, but I guess I could create hosts as well. -What happened?

    Thanks for your help.

    where does say desktops are hosts?  A host is usually referring to an ESXi server.  A virtual machine is just the guest OS running on the host computer.  A pool is a group of VMs that can extend over several hosts.
