    Good morning,

    I have two questions about the Aruba central with Arubaos-CX.

    Context: I have two switches in VSX in a production environment in a Datacenter, I need to add to Aruba central portal, and these switches I want to be administrated from Aruba Central.

    1. What is the best way to add these switches to Aruba Central Group without change or erase the configuration? What kind of group do I need to use?
    2. Can I add these switches to the same group without has any problem with the VSX configuration? If I put two switches with VSX in the same group, have any issues?
    At this moment I just add the switches to Aruba Central but I can not do anything, and the platform doesn´t show all switches information.

    CX is only supported with templates.  It's hard to tell from your photos if you created a Template Group and imported the switches into it.

    Please read the notes at the top of this page:
    https://help.central.arubanetworks.com/2.5.2/documentation/online_help/content/switches/cx/switch-cx-vsx.htm

    Also read what is supported:
    https://help.central.arubanetworks.com/2.5.2/documentation/online_help/content/switches/supported-platforms/supported-switches-cx.htm

    Note the CX limitations, especially with VSX:
    https://help.central.arubanetworks.com/2.5.2/documentation/online_help/content/switches/cx/cx-limitations.htm

    Then follow the steps here:
    https://help.central.arubanetworks.com/2.5.2/documentation/online_help/content/switches/cx/prov-tmplt-prcnf-cx.htm

    You may only need to add the switched to a group, just make sure it's a Template Group.  But I cannot tell where you are having the issue from the info provided.
