Appendix A: VMware Validated Scenarios

Mitel validated three different setups for virtualization on top of VMware’s software for MX-ONE releases. These setups are:

• Consolidated setup where several Service Nodes are consolidated in one or more physical servers. In this case no redundancy is provided by VMware’s software.
• Availability setups where several physical servers are consolidated in one or more physical servers. In these solutions, redundancy is provided by VMware´s software. This option offers two possible setups:
  • VMware vSphere High Availability
  • VMware vSphere Fault Tolerance (only for Service Node)
