Hi All,
I have a nexus (N9K-C93180YC-FX) switch with "nxos.10.1.1.bin" which i need to put it in ACI Fabric.Can any one confirm we can directly convert the same Nxos to ACI 4.3.7l version.

Pro Tip: Make the Title of your post more descriptive. It'll help us and future users searching for answers.
Now for your Question. Since you're running an older 4.2 version (there is no 4.3 ACI version), you'll have to install the ACI switch image on that NXOS running switch. Follow this guide: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus9000/sw/7-x/upgrade/guide/b_Cisco_Nexus_9000_Series_NX-OS_Software_Upgrade_and_Downgrade_Guide_Release_7x/b_Cisco_Nexus_9000_Series_NX-OS_Software_Upgrade_and_Downgrade_Guide_Release_7x_c...
In later verison of ACI (I believe 5.2 and later) there's a feature for auto-converting NXOS switches. They need to be wiped (erased) first, but they will run through POAP process against APIC, and the ACI switch image will be auto-installed. Saves some of the manual work and gets the switch installed with the appropriate ACI image in one swoop.

How big RAM memory in your N9K?

We have sufficient space in RAM .But i can see there is no licence (Especially ACI) active in the switch ,did this will cause the issue.
