Hi Community, I'm dealing with a SolidFire SF4805 node issue and would appreciate any advice, especially since this unit is out of warranty. --- Environment - Cluster: 4-node SolidFire SF4805, Element OS 11.8.0.23 - Affected Node: SF03 (Node ID: 3) - Cluster is still operational with remaining 3 nodes --- Symptoms - All 10…
We have decommissioned all of our NetApp H610s-4 nodes since they are coming up eol for support. We wanted to use them in a test/dev environment as ESXi hosts with vSan. Sadly, after removing these and the MNodes we discovered we cannot use the drives in these systems. They appear to be locked. I tried several ways to try…
Hello folks, we hit the known issue in regards to login the system after the power outage . https://kb.netapp.com/on-prem/solidfire/Element_OS_Kbs/Login_errors_using_admin_credentials__Cluster_UI_and_mNode_UI The system is not supported for a while 🙂 not in production but still used in LAB env. as backend storage. I would…
Folks looking to repurpose their NetApp HCI rigs or perhaps use PVE with SolidFire... The first screenshot shows a SolidFire volumes-related menu. The second is Proxmox-related (like "datastores" in another product) and the third illustrates the purpose of the entire thing, which (IMO) is to avoid the mess of…
Hi all, I'm in a very similar situation to @itgod_cluelessdog with his question "Reuse hardware of NetApp H410C - unable to boot" https://community.netapp.com/t5/SolidFire-and-HCI/Reuse-hardware-of-NetApp-H410C-unable-to-boot/m-p/456936 I'd like to repurpose my 4 H410S nodes, they contain quality CPUs, quite a handful of…
Hello folks, I tried to install Linux (openSUSE Leap 15.6 / ubuntu 24.04 LTS) on our NetApp H410C via the IPMI. I tried to boot from the virtual CDROM and from an USB key. I tried using UEFI and also legacy boot mode. Nothing worked, I was unable to boot. Has anyone an idea what could be wrong? BIOS version configured…
When the customer inquired via case, the answer was that the latency displayed in ActiveIQ includes the communication time between the client and SolidFire. Also, the answer was that there was no past performance data in SupportBundle. (Latency of Solid alone cannot be checked from SupportBundle.) In this case, do I need…
Hi all, I've created 5 volume replications between 2 nodes of an HCI cluster. The original volumes have been around for some time and each have about 10TB of data. How can I monitor the percentage of data that has already been replicated, or even if it has started and has no errors? The only messages available in the web…
I've been doing some work on SolidFire replication reporting and in addition to the more basic "broken volume pair" type of report I also created a bit more complicated version (see the screenshot which shows a view from each of the paired clusters; most of these volume relationships are broken for the purpose of finding…
Our environment includes SolidFire H410c and H410s nodes. We need to upgrade our H410c compute nodes from VMware ESXi 7.0 U3 to VMware ESXi 8.0 U1 because of business requirements. When it is expected H410c to be supported for VMware ESXi 8.x ? What additional NetApp firmware/software upgrades are needed before upgrading…
