    Hi, is it possible to combine 2 Aruba Mobility Controller to support more AP? For example, the customer has Aruba 7010 in the environment, they want to add more than 32 APs. 
    Can I add another Aruba 7005 so that they can add another 16 AP, all the AP under the same management?

    Thank you.

    You could, but you may put yourself in a situation where you over subscribe a controller if the other fails. Best practice for redundancy is to make sure you have another controller/controllers that can take the full AP/Client load.

    Hi,

    Yes, of course you can, and you can add a MM above the controllers and make use of its benefits

    Take into account the Dustin's recommendation as well.
