What is the compatibility between ND Insights and ND?

[SIMMN]

According to the Nexus Dashboard Capacity Planning tool, Insights is not supported on ND v2.3.1...Screenshot below. I can not find further explanation on why OR when will Insights be supported on latest ND...Any suggestion?

Hi @SIMMN 

According to release notes:

If you have both Nexus Dashboard Insights and Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller in your environment but hosted in different Nexus Dashboard clusters, we recommend that you wait until the release of Nexus Dashboard Insights version 6.2.1 with the next Nexus Dashboard release 2.3(1) patch and then upgrade both clusters together.

Reference: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/dcn/nd/2x/release-notes/cisco-nexus-dashboard-release-notes-231.html

So I guess, it's the NDI version which is not yet supported on ND 2.3.1, and should be fixed through a later patch.

This is just my understanding, but I am happy to hear the official response from any insider. Maybe @John Cui knows more on this topic?

Cheers,

Sergiu

Thanks for the information and it is good enough for me for now...

BTW, I would think Insights and NDO co-hosting would be a more popular option but somehow the release notes do not seem to agree...
