past server appliance models. In addition the DMS Failover Servers those are to be released with DMS
v.5.2.3 will be shipped only on UCS server appliances and will require that current MCS-based primary

Failover Servers. Finally, the current DMS Backup/Restore function is designed to only support disaster
recovery between exact server appliance models and does not support migration from one type of server
appliance to another. To accommodate these various server model dependencies and requirements a new
