If system is under support, open case with NetApp.

Reset CFE variables using set-defaults at CFE prompt and see if it helps.

Try running diagnostic using boot_diags.

If it fails also, there is small chance that boot device is corrupted; try to netboot.

If this fails also, I am afraid you have hardware issue; FAS270 is the whole FRU.

Also are you able to hit ctrl/c when prompted to interrupt the boot sequence and go to the Special Options Menu? If so, choose option 5 for Maintenance Mode and troubleshoot using `sysconfig` `fcadmin device_map` `aggr status` & `vol status`

It looks like you are pressing Ctrl+C too early. Do it after you see the "Press CTRL-C for special boot menu" on the console, then pick option "5" for Maintenance Boot. You don't need to see the disks to get to this menu (or it would be pretty useless).

You also need to make sure that you are using the correct controller FC port and the correct speed on your shelves (older models didn't support 2Gbit/s speeds, etc). Most of this should be in the documentation. The controller itself should be in module slot B in the controlling disk shelf.
