Virtual Machine Requirements

UC Monitor is supported in virtual environments.

You can install UC Monitor components on virtual machines that meet or exceed the hardware requirements.
To achieve equal performance in an environment that stresses a physical server, more memory is required on a virtual machine than on a physical server. Physical servers outperform virtual machines in the area of disk I/O. UC Monitor tasks the disk I/O heavily. You can expect less-than-equal performance on a virtual machine.
In a Cisco environment, send SPAN traffic to the monitor NIC. For more information, see the following topics:
- Configure Network Interface Cards
- Preparing a Cisco Environment
To install the UC Monitor software on a virtual machine, follow the instructions in Installing the Software.
