Hi 424705,

Appreciate your response to my inquiry.

I have doubts about creating HA with two different licensing methods (PAYG and BYOL). However, the client is expecting to maintain everything and simply change the license from PAYG to BYOL but we both know that this is not possible

Creating first the BYOL HA instance might create complexity since they will use the same set of interfaces, IP addresses, and other resources of their current F5 VE HA. This also means that I have to destroy their current setup just to utilize the same resources.

Also, do you have some sort of manual or guide on how to create HA in Azure manually?

Thank you so much.

Hey Jim-1019  - it looks like the user used ChatGPT to create this reply for you, and then took the opportunity to insert SEO spam after they posted. I'll mention your post this in today's Community Highlights to boost visibility and hopefully get you the answer you actually need.

    Hi Leslie,

    I was unaware that the one who answered my inquiry was a ChatGPT. That is why I doubted his answer because I tried that method before posting here in the community. Thanks, Leslie, hopefully, I got the correct answer on this as I have to deploy the setup in a month.

    Appreciate you informing me.
