Virtual Mode Guide
Does anyone have a guide on how to convert their SC to Virtual Mode from Legacy Mode? I've been dragging my feet with the outage that's required, and I think I just need to bite the bullet and get it done.
Thanks
Josh

Morning Hugh,
I ended up separating my HBA's into four FD's (legacy and VP for both 1Gb & 10Gb) then changed the targets in my virtual environment to point to the new FD's and then after I cycled the boxes and they were only targeting the IP's of the new FD, I moved the other IP's to the new VP FD.
It takes a while but it didn't require any downtime :)

Josh,
I don't have any advise, but if and when you do, could you post what your experience was like. We are in the same boat with a ton of servers connected and we're not looking forward to the downtime either.
Regards,
Hugh
