If you notice, any installation on VMWARE for 7.1.3 will disable the BE installation option saying that the hardware is not supported. Same problem on CUCM BE 8.0 as well. Any guidance on this will be much appreciated. I tried playing around the hardware_check.sh files and installed it on VirtualBox and tried to make CM think it was sitting on I.B.X or H.X box but no avail. Hi,

Once the installation is complete UCM won't need to reach the NTP server. The easiest way to deal with this is have a Linux installation (can be VMWare install) on the same subnet you are installing UCM 7.1.3 and enter the IP of Linux as the NTP server. I use RHEL5 but CentOS works just as well. The default installation automatically configures RHEL/CentOS as an NTP time source and no extra configuration is needed. Yasin,

I intentionally didn't connect to the internet. Is there any way to bypass or skip this part? In version 7.0 of CUCM there didn't appear this part!!! I kindly appreciate for your help!!! Hi,
