You can install Avaya Aura® Media Server (MS) on the commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware by using standard server operating systems. The hardware and operating system configuration must meet the minimum system requirements to support the functionality of Avaya Aura® MS. Avaya provides Platform Vendor Independent (PVI) Check software to verify the server you have installed meets the system requirements.

Review the system requirements in this chapter and perform the procedures to configure your system. You must run the PVI Check to verify that the system meets the minimum requirements after configuration.
