Resetting and repurposing a FAS250

We have a FAS250 (Single Controller) which is currently serving CIFS shares and iSCSI LUNs for our XenServer cluster. I've now replaced this box with a better filer and so would love to repurpose it for our testing\dev environment.

The current setup is: 14x300GB FC 10k disks. 2 aggregates - agg0 (7 disks RAID4) and agg1 (6 disks RAID4) and a hot spare.

I'd like to reset the whole filer and create one aggregate with 13 disks - RAID-DP and a hot spare.

1. How do I reset the filer to run setup again?

2. Would there be any problems with the new setup I've specified?

3. The FAS250 has 2 NICs, does anyone know if it supports NIC teaming or iSCSI multipathing?

Thanks!
