Pre-Requisites
Working EVE-NG server (I used PRO, version 6.4.0.x)
VMWare Workstation Pro (I used the last updated version after Broadcom acquired them)
CUCMv15 bootable ISO (I used the unrestricted ISO)
Procedure:
- Install CUCMv15 ISO on Workstation PRO. Refer to any CUCMv15 installation guides. I personally used an official OVA file.
- Once the installation is completely finished. Turn off the VM and copy the .vmdk disk from your Virtual Machines folder
- Transfer the .vmdk into eve-ng server. Convert the .vmdk into a QEMU image.
/opt/qemu/bin/qemu-img convert -f vmdk -O qcow2 <CUCMv15.vmdk> hda.qcow2 - Create a directory in EVE-NG in the QEMU folder “cucm-“
- Place the hda.qcow2 image into the cucm- folder. Important: make sure only the qcow2 image is in this folder. If the .vmdk file is also within this folder, move it somewhere else.
- Run unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions
- Open an EVE-NG lab and create a CUCM node. This CUCM node should be able to run.
