NimbostratusHello,
Since the bigip version allows the concurrent HA of virtual & hardware, can you please inform me what is the most optimum way of migrating from VE to hardware devices:
1) Add the other new hardware devices to the VE (active-standby) group, sync them and then shutting down one by one the VE devices in order to failover to the hardware devices.

Thank you.
