Server Replacement

Hi Experts,

I have to replace 40 old ucs servers with new servers and all servers are running 5.5 U3 with VC 6.0.

Kindly guide me for steps how to replace bunch servers with minimal impact.

Please share your experience or reference doc.

Basically this shouldn't be a problem.

You'd basically place a host (or more, depending on the available resources) into Maintenance mode, migrate/vMotion the VM's to the other hosts, and then replace those hosts. Once done proceed with the next host(s).
