Composer1 upgrade to Composer2

[ogleo]

Hello evrybody,

I need change my Composer1 to new one Composer2 and I have big trouble because I have incomaptible version of  Composer1 like - 6.60.00-0455762.
When I try to upload a backup I have warning that compatible version of Composer2-hardware is 7.10.00-0464465.
If I remember las version of OneView on Composer1 is 6.60 then I have big trouble :-(.

Hello,

I think maybe I can Reimage Composer2 to version 6.60 and then trying to restore from backup??

Are you following the guide for replacement?   https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=a00090518en_us

It will help avoid these confusions.  It specifically instructs you to reimage the new Composer2 to match exactly the version the backup was taken from the Composer (1st gen).

Hello,

Thanks a lot I thinked the same but you confirmed my opinion.
In this situation I must download Composer2-6.60.00 - HPE_Synergy_Composer_2_6.60.00_INSTALL_Z7550-97328.zip
And from this unpacked zip I'll prepare USB boot this - https://techlibrary.hpe.com/docs/synergy/composer2/msg/prepare-USB-reimage.html and after that i reimaging like below:
