We do this before the install, it is up to the customer to not overload their 
SAN going forward.

If the test fails or Data Center Engineers recommend moving other high 
intensity applications off the SAN or adding drives to increase IOPS.

Interesting.

Is the test run periodically or just on demand? Is there a historical graph 
available?

Is the test itself passive with a simple high volume read/write and it comes 
back with results or is it stress based, ie you punch an IOPS value and it 
tries to do that much traffic.

Most importantly, if the test fails, how do they follow up. That's the biggest 
fear I have.

We have our data center guys run an iops test VM to determine whether or not 
the storage is provide the required iops, and we recommend that the customer is 
 already experienced with a storage environment. We don't want an admin 
accidentally bringing the storage array down.

C series is the recommendation unless its a high end enterprise customer.

I just found this:  
http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/UC_Virtualization_Supported_Hardware#Storage

Looks like all the protocols are supported.  FCoE, iSCSI, NFS for 3rd party.

Anyone running any of this in production and care to put in your two cents?

OK planning storage requirements for UC on UCS upgrade from 8.6(physical)  to 
10.5(vm)

we are looking at 2 CM nodes, 1 UC, 1 UCCx, one CER, PLM, PCD, and presence.  
The way I see it from the VM doc's it looks like I need about 1 TB of storage 
and roughly 8k IOPS.  What Protocols are supported?  FCoE? iSCSI? NFS?  The 
only thing I have found thus far is FC.

Can anyone confirm that IO and Storage looks reasonable?  and let me know which 
protocol's are TAC supported?

Thanks

Scott
