Voicemail Pro installation - IP Office Info

3.1.3 Virtual Server Support
Installation: General Installation Requirements
Operation of IP Office server applications, including Voicemail Pro, is supported using the following virtual servers.
· VMWare Server.
· Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2.
· Microsoft Server Hyper-V.
3.1.4 Network Requirements
The computer should be configured and tested for TCP/IP networking.
The voicemail server computer must be connected to the IP Office Control Unit directly or through a LAN switch.
If directly connected, changing the settings of the computer network card to match the IP Office control unit can resolve
some issues. This should be done according to the computer or network card manufacturer's instructions. The options for
IP Office LAN ports are:
· All IP Office LAN ports are 10Mbps/100Mbps auto sensing.
If not directly connected, using any of the above settings must be supported and matched by the intervening network
equipment.
· The computer must have a static IP address.
· If the IP Office is acting as a DHCP server, it defaults to using 192.168.42.2 to 192.168.42.201 for DHCP clients.
This leaves 192.168.42.202 to 192.168.42.254 for devices that require fixed IP addresses.
3.1.5 Disk Space Requirements
The following are only approximations:
· At least 2GB of free disk space is required on the operating system drive (by default c:), regardless of to which
drive Voicemail Pro is actually installed.
· A compact Voicemail Pro installation requires 130MB.
· A typical installation requires approximately 255MB.
· A custom installation requires up to 2GB of disk space. However, prompts and recorded messages consume an
additional 1MB of disk space per minute.
· For a busy environment you can expect to require at least 1000 minutes of message recording space, that is 1GB.
· If you are installing the Client only, you can expect to require at least 170MB.
3.1.6 Web Server Operation
If a Web browser access is required, the Microsoft IIS Web Server must be installed on the server computer before
Voicemail Pro is installed:
· Microsoft web server products run as services and require Voicemail Pro to also run as a service.
· Internet Information Server 5.0 or higher is required.
3.1.7 ContactStore Operation
ContactStore is the current IP Office Voice Recording Library (VRL) application. For details on ContactStore, see Avaya IP
Office ContactStore (15-601037).
You must do the following to use ContactStore with Voicemail Pro:
· Install the latest version of IP Office ContactStore along with the available patches and verify its operation before
you install Voicemail Pro.
· Use different hard disk partitions to store the archived IP Office ContactStore messages and the Voicemail Pro
messages. Alternatively, you may use a different hard disk to store the archived IP Office ContactStore messages,
or install IP Office ContactStore on a different computer.
· As you require additional Voicemail Pro licenses 12
to use ContactStore to store recordings, enter an Advanced
Edition license key on IP Office hosting the Voicemail Pro server. If you are using a Small Community Network,
enter either Advanced Edition license keys or VMPro Recordings Administrators license keys on other IP
Offices in the network that you want to use with ContactStore.
· Use RAID 1 or RAID 5.
· Use a DVD recorder for long-term archiving.
· Use a hard drive that has enough space to store the archived recordings. You need approximately 7.2MB of hard
disk space to store an archived recording of one hour duration.
· Verify that no other web service running on the host computer is using the port address 8888, as the system uses
the non-configurable port address 8888 to access the archived messages stored in IP Office ContactStore through a
web interface.
