UPM can be installed on either 32-bit or 64-bit versions of Windows Server 2003/2008 and will run as a
32-bit application. UPM has not been tested with Windows servers that are 64-bit only, such as
Windows Server 2008 R2, and is not expected to work in this environment
●
Cisco custom OS versions
◦
Cisco provides a customized version of Windows Server 2003 with some of its Cisco Unified
Communications applications and hardware. Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager will not operate
properly with these custom versions. If you user Cisco hardware, don’t buy a Media Convergence Server
(MCS) with Windows installed
Loading Other Software with Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager
Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager is expected to be loaded on a hardware platform running Windows Server
2003/2008 along with the Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager application. If a Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager
patch is required, this may be loaded.
Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager does not require CiscoWorks Common Services, so do not attempt to load it
on a server running Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager.
Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager has undergone interoperability testing with McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.0,
8.5i, and 8.7i. For McAfee Enterprise VirusScan 8.0, you must have Patch Version 11 installed. Install the McAfee
VirusScan Enterprise 8.0 Patch Version 11 before installing Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager on the system.
OpenSSL may be loaded as described in the Installation Guide for Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager for
support of HTTPS connections between your web browser and the Cisco Unified Provisioning Manager server.

Information Needed During Installation
If you are installing for the first time, the best practice is to use the default port numbers offered during the
installation unless they are known to interfere with other services on the same network. Make sure you save your
settings in case you need to reuse them for a future reinstall, recovery, or upgrade. This is especially important if
you do an advanced installation.
You may need to supply the following information during the installation of Provisioning Manager:
