I have no questions about the head swap procedure itself, I've read the doc “Upgrade by moving storage”, everything is clear there, replacement looks possible. But maybe I missed something and there is some incompatibility?</P> Mon, 30 Oct 2023 14:13:31 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/ONTAP-Hardware/Head-swap-FAS2554-to-FAS8300/m-p/448488#M11665 Silentio 2023-10-30T14:13:31Z https://community.netapp.com/t5/ONTAP-Hardware/Head-swap-FAS2554-to-FAS8300/m-p/448509#M11668 <P>Some available documentation about that procedure at:</P><P><A href="https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-systems-upgrade/upgrade/upgrade-convert-node-to-shelf.html" target="_blank">Convert an original node to a drive shelf (netapp.com)</A>&nbsp;</P><P>and&nbsp;<A href="https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-systems-upgrade/upgrade/upgrade-considerations.html#requirements-and-limitations" target="_blank">Considerations for upgrading controller hardware (netapp.com)</A></P> Tue, 31 Oct 2023 12:30:30 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/ONTAP-Hardware/Head-swap-FAS2554-to-FAS8300/m-p/448509#M11668 Amador 2023-10-31T12:30:30Z
