Page 10 of 34 Per-Application Design Pre-requisites: For each application, perform capacity planning, sizing, and cluster design based on your scale and redundancy requirements. Use one of the following documents, based on the level of prescriptive guidance you require: ● If planning a typical best practices design and deploying on Business Edition 6000 (BE6000) hardware, see section BE6000 Supported Solution Capacities in the appropriate Installation Guide. ● If planning a typical best practices design and deploying on Business Edition 7000 (BE7000) or similarly-spec'd hardware, see the section Simplified Sizing Examples in the appropriate Cisco Collaboration Sizing Guide. ● If you need a more customized design, see either the Cisco Collaboration Preferred Architectures or the appropriate Cisco Collaboration System Solution Network Design Guide. Result: The “output” is a set of application nodes, each with a “T-shirt size” capacity, used to determine virtual machine information.
