A global post-production studio operates FlashBlade systems across two major sites: Studio A (Los Angeles) is the primary site for ingesting, editing, and rendering high-resolution video content. Studio B (London) provides collaborative editing and backup and receives mirrored copies of active projects through bidirectional object replication. Both studios run active-active multisite replication, where large video files are continuously written and synced in both directions.The IT team plans to perform a Purity//FB upgrade on both systems. They want to ensure replication remains stable during the process and avoid any impact to live editing workloads, which rely on seamless data availability between sites.Given this active-active replication setup, how should the Flashblade-Architect approach the upgrade to avoid disrupting replication and minimize risk?
