Cluster 4510 and 8510

[CGL]

Hi all, 

We have a client that has a MSE cluster with 5 x 8510s, with 2 of these being clustered into a single cluster separate from our Conductor.

Entity 1

TMS > 1 Clustered MCU > 2 x 8510s 

Entity 2

TMS > Conductor > 3 x 8510s 

We need to expand on entity 1's port capability and they are reluctant to move to CMS just yet. Is it possible to add a 4520 or 4510 to the 2 clustered 8510's so that it looks like this:

TMS > 1 Clustered MCU > 2 x 8510s 1x 4510 

I can't find any similar documentation on if this is possible. 

Any advice would be appreciated. 

Thanks,

The Admin Guides say that a "Cluster" can only be made on MSE8510 blades, so you wouldn't be able to add a 45xx to a cluster.

Thanks so much Wayne, it's not perfect but we will remove a 8510 from the Conductor pool and cluster it with the MCU cluster and add the 45xx to the conductor pool in place. 

Thanks for your quick answer mate.
