Good day Alexey,

The answer to your question is that you cannot form a cluster with different firmware versions. If one SZ is on an older firmware then its better upgrade it to the version currently running on second SZ and then you will be able to form a cluster.

One of the reasons behind not being able to form a cluster with different versions is that different releases have different features so its technically not possible to form a cluster.

Hope it helps!
Rahul
