How can I get 5.2.1.400-796142 to add and old-ass Nimble to Group and mirror/dump

How can I get 5.2.1.400-796142 to add and old-ass Nimble to Group and mirror/dump.

Have an old Nimble off support and to get the data migrated gracefully to a new supported Nimble need to update it to 5.2.1.400-796142

Support seems to gaurd these old versions... but cannot gracefully get data from an old boat anchor to a new supported Nimlbe without updating an old one from 5.0.

Thanks!
Craig

Hi Cowboycraig

As far as these old versions are concerned, they will no longer be available unless the firmware is GA or LTSR
I request you to contact HPE Nimble Tech support to get more information on this.

Hope this helps.!!

Mahesh.

If you are planning to decom this old array, why not just use host based migration like storage vmorion? saves you some headache from ading to group.
