We are looking to combine our two nutanix blocks together.

we currently have the NX-3360-G6 and the NX-1365-G6. if this possible to achieve, do we have have to double up on the redundant connections per node? 

this would mean it would be occupying 12 sfp+ connections all together. 

can anybody shed some light or experience on this?

Hi,

Yes you can mix the nodes between 2 blocks since you have the same generation

A G6 block must contain only G6 nodes

A cluster can contain nodes from any NX generation, but a G6 block must contain only G6 nodes, a G7 block must contain only G7 nodes, and so on.
