    Hello experts,

    We have a bunch of AP-634s that we need to provision in order to complete our wireless network migration

    From this link: Aruba 630 Series Wi-Fi 6E APs

    HPE Aruba Networking remove preview

    HPE Aruba Networking's 630 Series Wi-Fi 6E Indoor Access Points unlock the 6 GHz band to provide fast, resilient, and secure connectivity.

    ====================================================

    Minimum operating system software versions

        AP-634 (excluding 6GHz support):
            ArubaOS and Aruba InstantOS 8.11.2.0, ArubaOS 10.6.0.0

        AP-634 (including 6GHz support):
            ArubaOS and Aruba InstantOS 8.12.0.0, ArubaOS 10.7.0.0

    ====================================================

    However this is what we see during bootup:

    [  123.234273] (06:23:34) OOPS. someone else thinks he is the conductor too, beacon version 4 from 68:28:cf:c4:c4:49 10.3.143.4 bond0
    [  123.234304] (06:23:34) I am CONDUCTOR. recv-ed a conductor normal-beacon.
    [  123.361424] (06:23:34) conductor provision, 0 vs. 0
    [  123.443695] (06:23:34) Beacon ap-ip, 10.X.X.55 vs. 10.X.X.4
    [  123.499947] (06:23:34) Beacon 3G capability, 0 vs. 0

    The AP boots up as standalone. 

    When we try to convert the AP in the GUI>Maintenance>Convert>Campus APs managed by  a Mobility Controller, this is what we get:

    The AP bootup shows a SW version 8.11.2.0, while our network is still 8.10.0.10..

    Does this AP require a different way of provisioning?

    Many Thanks,

    Alex

    Minimum software requirement for the 634 is 8.11.2, if your existing is running 8.10.0.10 then you'll have to upgrade.
