Disk

Riaad — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 10:56:30 GMT

Hi,

I just finish installing Ontap 9.7P6 on FAS2740. What I notice is that there is an aggr that I can't seem to delete or modify. It does not show up when I type aggr show (Only the root aggr) but I can see it when I type storage disk show -container-name *aggr name*

It's bugging me so much because it's using 13 TB disk space raid-tec.

Please help.

See pictures.

Did you intentionally deploy this without ADP?

Also, were any of the disks moved from another controller?

What's the output of the following:

node run -node * aggr status

set d; debug vreport show

The hard drive is 10TB and uses raid-tec by default.

ADP - Advanced Drive Partitioning. It will partition the drives up so you'll have a smaller part for root and a larger part for Data. 55TB is a lot to waste for root agars. https://docs.netapp.com/ontap-9/topic/com.netapp.doc.dot-cm-concepts/GUID-B745CFA8-2C4C-47F1-A984-B95D3EBCAAB4.html

Right now it looks like your root aggrs are made up up 3x8TB drives.

Can you post the output of "storage disk show" and "storage disk show -partition-ownership"

it's not. the output from -partition-ownership tells me that.

here's from a system with ADP:

Are you able to do a re-init? You would get a lot of space back and it would clear out that screwy aggr too.

Re: Disk

Riaad — Thu, 20 Aug 2020 16:12:48 GMT

yes, I can but I tried that before and it keeps coming back. is that any specific way to do it. should i go with option 9a-c

Re: Disk

SpindleNinja — Thu, 20 Aug 2020 16:20:24 GMT

9a/9b - c is whole, how you have it currently.

https://docs.netapp.com/ontap-9/topic/com.netapp.doc.dot-cm-sag/GUID-B86616AE-D345-4B44-AA56-BBC7ABD44068.html

do this ->

opt 9a on controller 1

...wait for it to finish

opt 9a on controller 2

...wait for it to finish

opt 9b on controller 1

...wait for it to finish

opt 9b on controller 2

configure the cluster like you normally would.

Re: Disk

Riaad — Thu, 20 Aug 2020 16:42:07 GMT

Thanks will give it a try and let you know.

Re: Disk

Riaad — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 13:54:58 GMT

@SpindleNinja So I tried it and all is well. one thing I notice that caused the issue is that I tried to do ADP before and I used option9b which created raid -TEC because the disk is 6TB and above. when that failed I did not notice. However, when I was following the steps you said I notice that so I performed 9a and 9c then go through the normal setup. all works great thus far. thanks for your help.

Re: Disk

SpindleNinja — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 14:04:47 GMT

Failed on the second controller?

9c still give you whole drives. which eats a lot of space for the roots.

Re: Disk

Riaad — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 14:58:45 GMT

Nothing failed.

I know that, but for the root, It can't use option 9b because one single disk is over 6TB and when the disk is that large 9b does not work. it gives an error cant create a root vol because 5 of 7 disks are available. when I select 9c it creates three disk raid DP.

Re: Disk

andris — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 16:09:49 GMT

Did the message looks like this?

Unable to create root aggregate: 5 disks specified, but at least 7 disks are required for raid_tec

This has the same symptoms as Bug 948840 - System initialization fails to create root aggregate in certain configurations

https://mysupport.netapp.com/site/bugs-online/product/ONTAP/BURT/948840

But if you're really on ONTAP 9.7P6, it should have been fixed.

In any case, there is a workaround, but you will need to contact Technical Support by opening a case and they will take you through it.

I do recommend you do this... using 7TB x 2 for the root aggregates is a tremendous waste of space!

Re: Disk

SpindleNinja — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 16:13:26 GMT

What @andris said on both accounts.

Re: Disk

Riaad — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 16:52:27 GMT

@andris @SpindleNinja I did have NetApp Release 9.7P6 install on the Nodes. so why I am getting that error I have no idea. Maybe if I add AFF to the node hard drive slot I have created the root from there. Also when I create aggregates I have to use Raid_TEC no chance of getting raid-dp since the disk is 10TB in size.

Re: Disk

andris — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 17:48:03 GMT

If you'd like to address the root aggregate issues, please open a case and reference the bug.

We allow RAID-DP for partitioned root aggregates with 8TB+ disks, but RAID-TEC is mandatory for data aggregates w/ 8TB+ disks.

Re: Disk

Riaad — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 17:52:43 GMT

@andris that is what I was saying my disk size is 10TB and uses Raid-TEC. that is why I could not use 9b at boot menu. so I use 9c instead and it took three disks. 1 for the root vol and 2 DP.

Re: Disk

SpindleNinja — Fri, 21 Aug 2020 17:55:33 GMT

why i asked if it failed on the second controller as that's usually the case.

I'd reach out to support for the fix as you're on a fix code level of that bug.

It'll be worth it to gain the extra space back.
