We've already migrated all the data from the FAS2050 to the internal drives of the FAS2240-2.</P><P></P><P>I need to know the correct way to move the disk shelf to the 2240-2 without issue. Do I perform a intialization of the owner disks and zero them all out to remove the data and then connect the shelf? Do I remove ownership of the disks on the FAS2050 in maintenance mode and then connect the disk shelf to the 2240 and assign the disks to the node I want? Is there a best way to do this?</P><P></P><P>Thank you for the guidence.</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 05 Jun 2025 05:54:23 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/ONTAP-Hardware/How-to-move-DS4243-disk-shelf-to-new-controller/m-p/52814#M3766 cgeck0000 2025-06-05T05:54:23Z Re: How to move DS4243 disk shelf to new controller? https://community.netapp.com/t5/ONTAP-Hardware/How-to-move-DS4243-disk-shelf-to-new-controller/m-p/52818#M3767 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Destroy all aggregates on shelf, zero spares, remove disk ownership, shutdown filer, disconnect shelf.
