1) you said you have 2 viprion chassis. I assume you are using them to host active-standby setup for guests. If that's the true, all the guests are active on one Viprion host so you can carry out change on other Viprion chassis without disrupting prodution services.
2) once you swap the blades, configure management IP and activate license. And then upload Host UCS archive from previous setup and restore it.
Hope it helps,

vCMP hosts running on Viprions will always be standalone.. it's the guests which run upon them are setup as HA pairs. If A and B are in HA pair, if A is active on Host 1, B will be standby on Host 2.
Check if this is your setup, you can manage without downtime.
