Yes it can be done, as long as its done the right way.

Please tell the method you had tried. You are doing platform migration.

  1. Whats the base version that's present on the volumes (on i2600),

tmsh show sys software

  1. Did you save the UCS properly on 2200 & scp'd it to the i2600.
  2. How was the installation done on i2600,

tmsh load /sys ucs  no-license

Or you can take the route of SCF restore.

Refer this Article.

  • Save the config.

tmsh save sys config file /var/tmp/$HOSTNAME

  • SCP the 2 files (scf and tar file) from 2200 /var/tmp/ to the i2600 tmp directory.

  • Load all configuration on i2600 

tmsh load /sys config file  tar-file
