<p class="MsoNormal">I mean you could just configure 1x controller in a standard configuration ... and you could even suppress the alarms related to the second controller missing ...<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">BUT you would not be able to make any post-install configuration changes to the controller that requires the controller to be locked, because the system will not allow you to lock the last controller in a system configuration ( ... suspect
it won’t even allow you to force lock it ...).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">AND you would not be able to apply a ‘reboot-required’ patch or upgrade with a single controller in standard configuration.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">... so not really.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I understand that we should have the high-availability for the controller in the real edge-deployment, but just wanted to check the possibility of having only one controller in “bare metal Standard with Controller Storage” deployment?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is this kind of deployment possible and what all changes we need to have for single controller deployment?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
