ACE30 & CSM in same chassis

[Richard Tapp]

We currently have a 6500 chassis with CSM, I need to start migrating services on this over to an ACE30. Both modules are currently in the chassis, has any one ever had any issues running both modules at the same time ?

The ACE will be using completely new IP details, so won't overlap with the CSM and the CSM is very lightly used, less than a dozen servers in total.
