Applies To
This information applies to:
- V9
- innovaphone Virtual Appliance
- Intel/AMD CPUs
- VMware
- Workstation 7.1
- Player 3.x
- ESX 4.x
More Information
The innovaphone Virtual Appliance (IPVA) is a virtual machine to be run on a virtualization platform. Whereby, VMware[1] is is the solely supported virtualization platform to-date.
The IPVA is a software-only solution. It appears as and performs as an innovaphone "hard-box" excluding DSP-, ISDN-/AB-resources.
The following core-components are contained within the IPVA:
- innovaphone PBX
- innovaphone Gateway (a.k.a Relay)
- integrated mass-storage (alike innovaphones' CF-card support)
Limitations
The IPVA cannot terminate conferences. As of today the required DSP-resource is not emulated.
Configuration
Download the IPVA. The IPVA is a directory containing:
- ipva.vmx: The virtual machine configuration file
- hd-boot.vmdk: The virtual boot harddisk (hd)
- hd-cf.vmdk: The hd for emulation of a Compact Flash card
- hd-flash.vmdk: The hd for emulation of flash memory
- hd-dump.vmdk: The hd serving as a store for a crash dump
VMware Player/Workstation
- Copy the IPVA to e.g. your desktop
- Double-click on ipva.vmx
The IPVA is going to be started.
A shortcut (*.lnk file) to the vmx-file will start the IPVA without additional user interaction. Such a shortcut may also be copied into the Windows Autostart program folder, in order to have the IPVA started automatically on windows startup.
Network Configuration
Currently as DHCP client only. I.e. a DHCP server must be available.
Download
http://download.innovaphone.com/ice/download/p/published/Firmware%20Version%209/
Troubleshooting
A new option has been added to Admistration/Diagnostics/Tracing. The option trace(crash-dump) is going to read a post-mortem log from hd-dump.vmdk, if available.
Known Issues
ESX 3.x is unsupported
The IPVA does not run under ESX 3.x and below, since virtual IDE disks aren't supported.
