<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">I have to move from an MCS to UCS in VMware and wondered if I could cut some steps using Cobras.<br>
<br>
I could build same version in VMware with the same IP address then DRS , change IP address then upgrade to 8.6.<br>
<br>
With Cobras I should be able to build 8.6 with new IP address on UCS and then export from 8.0.3 and import to 8.6<br>
<br>
But..what am I losing using Cobras?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Mike<o:p></o:p></span></p>
