MiVoice Business on Microsoft Hyper-V
MiVoice Business has been available as a virtual appliance on VMware since early 2010 with thousands of successfully deployed systems in the field.
With the technology improvements in recent Microsoft Hyper-V software releases, Mitel is pleased to introduce support for MiVoice Business on this virtualization platform in 2014. Support for Microsoft Hyper-V will provide an additional deployment option for customers that have standardized on Hyper-V virtualization for their business applications.
If deploying on Microsoft Hyper-V, one must purchase the MiVoice Business Virtual product base package. Installation requires manual creation of the Virtual Machine
using documented recommended resource reservations, installation of Mitel Standard Linux OS, and the MiVoice Business application . Operational deployment simplification using virtual appliance form factor is not currently available. With MiVoice Business 7, basic Hyper-V management functions are fully tested and supported. As with all VMware based virtual appliances, online connectivity to Mitel's license server is required. Consult the MiVoice Business Virtual Engineering Guidelines for more details on the resource requirements and capacity limits for Hyper-V deployment.
MiVoice Business 7 support for Microsoft Hyper-V is expected to be available as part of MiVoice Business 7 Service Pack 1
