Virtual Connect-Enet to VC-Flex-10_important

Pedrag had a customer question:

 

*******************

 

Can someone help and advise me hot to upgrade c7000 from VC-Enet to VC Flex-10

 

Customer has VC-Enet modules in bay 1 and 2 and configured domain, FW version 3.10 In bays 3, 4, 5, 6 they have VC-FC 8G 20 modules with 1.41 FW

 

On the front they have BL860c i2 in bays 1 and 2 and BL860c in bay 3

 

Now they want to replace VC-Enet with VC-Flex 10 and to upgrade whole chassis with all modules and servers.

 

What is best way to do that, since they have bulit domain and servers with important applications?

 

**************

 

Input from Chris:

 

****************

 

The only way to perform a module upgrade when they are the VCM modules is to delete the domain and re-create it with the newer Flex-10 modules.  We do not have a process that would allow one to hot migrate VCM modules.  If they were slave modules, it could be done.  But your customer will need to take these systems offline.
