To merge the system
1. Verify that all upgrade processes are complete, and that you have exited any installer programs.
2. Optionally, terminate any Remote KVM or Remote Desktop sessions.
IMPORTANT:
If you terminate the Remote Desktop, "Disconnect" instead of "Logoff." You can remain
logged on to the Upgrade Side if you want to maintain the current desktop session. After the
merge, you will be using the Upgrade Side desktop.
3. Verify that the upgrade state, as reported in the status bar, is Production Side\Split\Ready.
If the status is Busy, you must wait for the current task to complete. If it is Broken, you might
need to abort the upgrade.
4. Click Merge.
IMPORTANT:
– Your screen might flicker and you might briefly lose control of your keyboard and mouse
as the system is merged.
– Do not select [Abort] button to interrupt the Active Upgrade during the merge. The disk

Reactivation] to verify the disk status becomes [online].

KVM connection to the Upgrade Side, the following error message appears on the Active
Upgrade Console of the Production Side while operating the merge.
