High Availability With the Cisco Nexus 1010-X Appliance
The Cisco Nexus 1010-X appliance must be deployed in a highly-available (HA) configuration with 
another Cisco Nexus 1010-X appliance. Standalone deployments of the Cisco Nexus 1010-X are not 
supported. 
The Cisco Nexus 1010-X appliance and a Cisco Nexus 1010 appliance, cannot be deployed together to 
form an HA pair. The hardware must be the same for the HA pair.
After you install the Cisco Nexus 1010-X, you can move, or migrate your VSBs from a Cisco Nexus 
1010 to the Cisco Nexus 1010-X appliance. The migration includes the following steps:
1.
Verify that the Cisco Nexus 1010 has the VSBs configured that need to be migrated to the Cisco 
Nexus 1010-X. 
2.
Set up the Cisco Nexus 1010-X in a redundant HA pair. 
3.
Migrate the HA VSBs like VSM and VSG to a Cisco Nexus 1010-X. 
4.
Migrate the non-HA VSBs like NAM and Cisco DCNM to the Cisco Nexus 1010-X.
