Hello, I have second hand AFF300 with 2 shelves 48 drives all all self encrypting SSDs. The previous ontap was 9.11.1 I uploaded 9.15.1P7 and trying to install from scratch. There is no data to be saves and I do have license keys to the controllers. When going to special boot option 5 i see error message [NODENAME-01:disk.encryptNoSupport:ALERT]: Detected FIPS-certified encrypting drive 0d.02.0, but FIPS drives are not supported on this node. 48 of 48 disks checked are FIPS-certified. Obviously the FIPS are not supported on the node. How do I enable this? There need to be some argument to set so when reboot the disk will be available. Right now disks are marked as failed: [NODENAME-01:diskown.errorReadingOwnership:notice]: error 3 ( disk failed) while reading ownership on disk 0a.01.22 (S/N 9620AXXXXXXX) Any Ideas?

Hello everyone. A customer want to upgrade a AFF A220 machine from ONTAP 9.6 to 9.15. The specific machine have a active SSP warrantee, from the Support Site on the tab Systems-> Software Version Support i see that the 9.6ver is under the End of Self-Service Support. So my question is, if we start the upgrade process and that process failed any reason. We will be able to open a support request for the specific machine for this problem? I already read the upgrade process, i will provide screenshots. Thanks. Best Regards, SG

Hello everyone. A customer of us has a AFF A220 that have active a SSP ALL SW service warranty. After a search i dont have find a clear answer on what this service provide. The machine is running on 9.6 and we want to go on the 9.15 ( if it;s possible). But we dont start the upgrade process with out the choice of support as a backup. From the ChatGPT i have take the follow response, on the question that is mean the SSP ALL SW. " SSP: This may stand for Software Subscription Plan or Support Service Package. It usually indicates a subscription or support agreement covering various NetApp software products and services. ALL SW: This typically means "All Software." It implies that the package covers all software offerings relevant to a specific NetApp product or service suite. NetApp Service: Refers to the array of services provided by NetApp, such as technical support, software updates, and access to tools that help manage storage infrastructure." The output of this is correct? I mean if a machine have SSP ALL SW service active on a problem that acquire on the upgrade process i will can open a service request for the problem? Thanks. Best Regards, SG
