Its your slots.

For a fresh system on an AFF, node 1 grabs the left disks (0-11) and node 2 grabs the right disk (12-23).

It seems you overloaded to the left and node 1 got 0-11 and node 2 got 12-16

and in node A,have 3 unpartition disks,ontap version is 9.8P12

Is this a new system ? What Model/ONTAP? Ideally, Just 3 disks are enough for the root_aggregate. Looks like more disks were added to increase the root aggregate ? But, it serves no purpose. The root aggregate is dedicated to the node’s root volume only. ONTAP prevents you from creating other volumes in the root aggregate.


You will need to re-initialize the system to use the correct set of disks.  That would leave  '7' spare disks, you can use '5' to create data_aggr and 2 you can keep as spare.

 

If you wish you can go for ADP: This will enable you to extract more space from single disk by using partitioning mechanism.

 

ADP: With Advance Disk Partitioning (ADP), a physical disk is divided into a small number of partitions at the storage level, and each partition is treated by RAID and HA as a logical disk. Aggregates are provisioned from partitions, instead of from whole disks.
