Upgrade Unity Conn from 8.0.(2) to 9.1(2) and migrate from MCS to UCS...

[Arturo Alejandro Mendoza Rodriguez]

Hello Ladies and Gents .

Currently I have a cluster of Unity Conn. 8.0.2 on MCS.

MCS have an arrangement of two disk. the cluster is supporting 2.5K users.

My doubt is about the OVF for UCS.

I've made the upgrade to 9.1.2 but I used the ovf template of 10K users (4vCPU / 6GB RAM / two 146GB vDisk)

Now I got the DRS backup and I will do the last step. a fresh install of 9.1.2. and restore the DRS backup in the fresh install.

Can I use the DRS backup ( 2vDisk setup) with the OVF template of 5Kusers (2vCPU / 6GB RAM / one 200GB vDisk)?

Thanks

Yes, DRS requires many other things to match to be able to restore, but the OVA/HW is not one of them.

Hi Jaime,

Thanks for your prompt response.

So there is no problem if I restore a DRS backup of a CUC with 2vDisk, into a fresh install with1vDisk?

I just want to be sure that my question was clear.

Thanks Again
