Chapter 5 Designing a Cisco Unity System with Domino as the Message Store
Voice Messaging Configuration
Unified Messaging, Domino Cluster
A clustered environment is the same as the non-clustered environment detailed in Table 5-3 except that
all Domino servers have to be in the same highly available and connected LAN as the Cisco Unity server.
Domino partitioning is also supported.
Voice Messaging Configuration
A clustered environment is the same as the environment detailed in Table 5-3 except that all Domino
servers are dedicated to servicing Cisco Unity voice messages.
Criteria for a Supported Configuration
Requirements for supported configurations for Cisco Unity for Domino include the following:
• Domino servers and Domino clusters must meet all IBM Lotus requirements, including
requirements related to DUC for Cisco, the maximum number of users per server, the proper amount
of memory, the proper processors and processor speed, hard disks that can meet disk-access
response times, and placement of data files and transaction log files. Cisco
Unity cannot support
message store servers that have performance bottlenecks such as slow hard drives or insufficient
memory.
• A Cisco Unity server can service a single physical site, meaning one or more well-connected LANs,
such as a campus, single building, or other centralized facility where network bandwidth is not a
problem.
Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Express
The Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CM) Express (formerly known as Cisco
Unified CallManager Express) and Cisco
Unity servers must be connected by a LAN.
Cisco Unity voice-recognition
server
The Cisco Unity voice-recognition server and the Cisco Unity server must be connected by
a LAN.
For each Cisco Unity server that homes subscribers for whom you want to have
voice-recognition functionality, you must have one voice-recognition server. A
voice-recognition server cannot service more than one Cisco
Unity server or, when failover
is configured, one pair of failover servers.
Voice-recognition software cannot be installed on the Cisco Unity server.
Cisco Unity Bridge server The Bridge server can be a member server in an existing domain or a workgroup server. It
cannot be a DC/GC.
The Cisco Unity Bridge and Cisco Unity servers can be connected by a LAN or a WAN.
Bridge software cannot be installed on the Cisco Unity server.
