FAS 3240 7-Mode HA controller swap licensing question

jbear — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 11:13:59 GMT

I have a FAS 3240 HA pair in (ONTAP 8.2.5 7-Mode) where controller 1 has had one of the intercluster ports (c0a) go bad. This HA pair is used for test and dev and not under any support agreement. I have another unused FAS 3240HA pair (same specs) and I'm planning to use one of those controllers to replace the failed intercluster controller. The licensing for all controllers are node locked. Am I going to have a licensing issue once I swap out the controller?

For cdot, definitely an issue, but not as sure in 7-mode. Perhaps the licenses for the controller you are swapping over can also be swapped over with it.
