IBM SAN Volume Controller 2145-SV3 node have some restrictions compared to legacy IBM SAN Volume Controller nodes.
They cannot do real-time compression. They cannot be connected to SAS expansion enclosures. They cannot service iSCSI I/O on the built-in Ethernet management ports. They do not support iSER host I/O. They do not support RoCE for clustering or HyperSwap.
If one of the nodes that you want to replace is the system configuration node (config_node:yes), replace it last.
