Specs-based virtualization support model is a Cisco Unified Communications (UC) platform that allows third-party servers to run Cisco UC applications. This support model ensures that the server hardware and software used to host the Cisco UC applications meet specific specifications.

The following are two statements that describe the specs-based virtualization support model for third-party servers running CISCO UC applications:

A. Cisco UC Virtualization Foundation software is mandatory: This statement means that the Cisco UC Virtualization Foundation (UCVF) software is required for third-party servers to run Cisco UC applications. UCVF is a software package that provides a common platform for running Cisco UC applications on third-party servers. It includes a hypervisor, operating system, and other software components necessary to run the Cisco UC applications.

C. Generic server hardware must be validated by Cisco: This statement means that the third-party server hardware must meet specific Cisco validation requirements before it can be used to run Cisco UC applications. This validation process ensures that the hardware is compatible with the Cisco UC applications and meets specific performance and reliability requirements.

The other answer options are not correct:

B. Only direct-attached storage is allowed: This statement is incorrect because third-party servers can use various storage options, including direct-attached storage, network-attached storage, or storage area network.

D. VMware vSphere is mandatory: This statement is incorrect because the specs-based virtualization support model does not require the use of VMware vSphere. Other hypervisors can be used as long as they meet the Cisco validation requirements.

E. VMware vCenter is mandatory: This statement is also incorrect because the use of VMware vCenter is not mandatory for the specs-based virtualization support model. VMware vCenter is a management tool that can be used to manage virtual machines running on VMware vSphere.

F. Cisco TAC supports the server when all spec-based rules are followed: This statement is partially correct because Cisco TAC (Technical Assistance Center) supports servers that meet the spec-based rules. However, this statement does not provide any specific information about the spec-based rules that must be followed.
