Splitting 2 production Viprion clusters(active-stdby) into two..
Hi,
I need to split 2 production Viprion clusters (redundant pair -Active/Stdby) into two standalone clusters.
Since this is Active-Stdby config I suppose I could just force offline the stdb...

I think you'd want to disable the switch ports that the second Viprion is connected to, change the first Viprion's config to a single unit and then reconfigure the second Viprion for its new role. Make sure to disable the failover VLAN last so the second Viprion doesn't go active while it can ARP for the shared IP addresses (VIPs, SNATs, etc). Doing it in this order should avoid any effect on the production traffic. Though to be safe, it would be best to do this work during a maintenance window.
