Are you trying to connect to cdot or 7-mode

if 7-mode you need connect-nacontroller

Hi,

I am not sure about cdotor 7-mode but the device is not clustered.

When I use Connect-NaconnectorI am getting this:

PS C:\Windows\system32> Connect-NaController 192.168.2.16

Connect-NaController : Failed to load ntapadmin64 DLL

@Krissh_9 @JGPSHNTAP

What is the windows version you are using? I'm facing the same issue and my windws is win server 2016.

Does anyone know how to get out of it?
