Hi All - I have situation here (in C mode),

Controller A is down and its sitting at "Waiting for Giveback".

Controller B is completely dead. I cann't execute cf give here.

In this case how I can make normal boot controller A.

Kindly do the needful.

You can try unplugging the B controller, reinserting it and restarting the B controller to observe its state after it restarts.

Or contact NETAPP technicians to replace the new controller

Many thanks for your reply.

We have already performed the above steps but there is no luck.

Is there any way for controller A to come out from the "Waiting for Giveback" as a standalone system.
