1. Is there a preferred order to do the upgrades (core first, edge second...)?
2. Does it matter if we leave the other fabric with the old firmware for a week or so to give us failback security?.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Solution2. It will not matter at all if the other fabric is left with the old firmware, as long as the two fabrics are totally separated.

Re: Brocade firmware upgrade sequence
In most models, you have to upgrade them to 5.3.1a / 6.0.1a before upgrading the others on the same fabric to 6.2.x.

Re: Brocade firmware upgrade sequence
2.
5.3.0d -> 5.3.1a
5.3.1a -> 6.0.1a
6.0.1a -> 6.1.0d
6.1.0d -> 6.2.0e
short on time - double check the upgrade paths - I can tell you (just having completed the FOS upgrades from v5.x to v6.x on 40+ SAN switches) that if you don't have the correct path - the upgrade simply errors and won't proceed - Brocade's single version upgrade policy makes it difficult especially if you are behind in switch FOS.
Hope, it helps.
