Great clarification. There is no guarantee but it seems a lot more random than the official Cisco statement would have us believe. The one I just had both used the same OVA during install one was aligned and the other wasn't.. On Thu, Jan 8, 2015 at 9:20 AM, Ryan Ratliff (rratliff)

Nothing about an upgrade from 8.6 to 9.x or later guarantees unaligned partitions. You will only get the error because your partitions were unaligned already. -Ryan On Jan 7, 2015, at 11:19 PM, Erick Wellnitz ewellnitzv...@gmail.commailto:ewellnitzv...@gmail.com wrote: I used 10.5.2 upgrade
