AF200 Controller replacement without support

jtejada — Wed, 11 Dec 2024 15:33:25 GMT

Hi all,

A customer has an AF200 system wich is near of end of support and we are evaluating if we can maintain this system by ourselves. The most complicated situation I see is if one of the controllers fails and we have to replace it. As I know without support we can't generate replacement licenses if we buy a refurbished controller but what about if that controller comes with its licenses, ¿It could work?

Thanks in advance

ONTAP licenses are not legally transferable, even if you have the codes. But it should work, if you have the codes.
