v10 to v11 Migration
I have a pair of 6400's running 10.2 that I would like to migrate to v11. My concern is that HA configuration has completely changed in v11, and I'm not sure how the upgrade process would handle this...

Hi Brad,
could you please share any gotchas/caveats and steps you took during your migration from 6400 to Viprion?
thanks!
- brad_11480Dec 08, 2014NimbostratusYour question one on 6400 to Viprion or version 10 to 11? The former is much more straightforward than the latter, which changed the HA. Let me assume you are staying on the same version and doing a platform migration. The config should come through just fine, your HA config would be setup the same but you probably have to reestablish device trust.. absolutely necessary if you change the management IP addresses on the new boxes (gotcha). Then it would be a change to the network interfaces. These are no longer done on the guests they are on the chassis... edit them out of your configurations and then define your interfaces and VLANs and trunks on the chassis/host, and assign the ones to the guests as needed for the guest. slick.
- Michael_65398Dec 08, 2014Nimbostratusthanks Brad. sorry for not being clear. i am doing a migration from big ip 8900 on v10 to Viprion on version v11, so both platform change and version change at the same time (my timeline does not allow upgrade the current platform to version 11 and then platform change). any insight would be greatly appreciated :)
