    Hi Everyone,

    I have a cluster of two 7200 controllers ina active/passive currently running 6.4.3.9.

    what is the best way to upgrade

    1. install firmware on master and reboot

    2. install Firmware in local reboot 

    ?

     

    and second q. is going from 6.4.3.9 to 6.5.0.3 ok

    is there a upgrade matrix i.e before going to 6.5.x.x you must be on 6.4.x.x

    You can upgrade to/from those firmwares with no issue.

     

    Upload the file to both and then reboot at the same time.  Make sure you do a "backup flash" on both controllers before you reboot, just in case you have to revert...

    I think it would loss connectivity if rebooting both controller at the same time, right?
