Copying Config From One FC Switch To Another

[john.pettigrew]

Hey Everyone,

I have a 9506 that I am replacing with a 9396S switch. My question is, is there an easy way to export the config from the 9506 (I have the show tech-support details output from the 9506) and then import that same config onto the 9396S so I can then just unplug my fiber connections from the 9506 and plug them directly into the 9396S and have them come back up?

Thanks!

The 2 hardware configurations are of course not compliant, and therefore anything hardware specific (eg.port configuration) cannot be automatically migrated.

VSAN definition (exception is port alliocation to VSAN), zones, zoneset's, device-alias db,... can be taken over without change.
