Hello everyone,
we are planing to deploy our old legacy nodes in our new federation but different vcenter meaning it would be a 2 vcenter in linked mode.
this is the end state we want:
Vcenter 1:(Already linked mode to vcenter 2)
cluster 1: 3x Hpe nodes (4.0.0)
cluster 2: 2x Hpe nodes(4.0.0)
vcenter 2:(Already linked mode to vcenter 1)
Cluster 1: 1x lenovo node(3.7.8 or 3.7.10)
is the set up will be fine ?
what version is good to mix with 4.0.0, 3.7.8 or 3.7.10 ?
Would I be able to do a backup from vcenter 1 to vcenter 2 ?
Any advise would help thanks !
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionHello @simonsimon1129,
While we support mixed clusters in version 4.0.0 I do not think you can deploy a server to an older version if you don't have already another node running on 3.7.x. The documentation states the following:

Re: MIx federation legacy nodes and HPE nodes
I suspect the Deployment Manager will complain about the versions. Version 3.7.10 supports mixed clusters but it is usually the other way around> going from 3.7.10 to a higher version.

Re: MIx federation legacy nodes and HPE nodes
Hello @gustenar ,
Thank you so much on your reply.
You are correct, We tried to deploy 3.7.8, 3.7.9 and 3.7.10 and errors are all the same
Error message: "step 4 of 34 - The Installer does not have compatible VC code in its configuration"

Re: MIx federation legacy nodes and HPE nodes
Yes, you need to be at the same levels to be able to deploy.
