    Hello,
     
    We have plan to update our Mobility Master from 8.6.0.9
    to last version,
    MM
     We have cluster with 2 controllers(7502) with 155 APs such as: 315,345 and 535 
     and we have to increase flash space in VM
     so:
     
     I would like to know is it possible to do these actions without impact our controllers and APs? 
     
    in other word, If I reboot MM is impact our controllers??? for some reasons, we have to do it in working day, 

    Thanks for your help,

    Best

    Rebooting the Mobility Conductor will not have significant impact on the network.  The MCR is responsible for handling AirGroup when using the centralized setup so rebooting your only MCR when using AirGroup might have impact.

    Note, if you are running the MCR as a virtual machine, you can install a second MCR virtual appliance and setup HA for the pair.

    Agreed with Carson, updating the Mobility Conductor don't have much impact on clients, other than airgroups, ucc, airmatch (conductor tasks).

    Some extras:

    • Create a VMware snapshot of the Mobility Conductor appliance.
    • Create a configuration backup of the Mobility Conductor.
    • Upgrade to latest Long Support Release (LSR), which is currently AOS 8.10.0.9.
    • Read the release notes carefully, also see if all hardware is supported. Link here.
