VIA Interconnect is down (link 0 down, link 1 down)

Hi,

 

I'm trying to set up a used filer.  It contains two controllers in a single chassis and runs ONTAP 7.3.  They both have IP's and disks assigned and are both reachable on the network.  

 

When I type 'cf status' it responds with 'Cluster disabled.  VIA Interconnect is down (link 0 down, link 1 down)'

 

According to this article, two controllers in the same chassis do not require cabling to be HA.  

 

Why does it say VIA Interconnect is down?

We bought these used, so I don't know how they were configured before.

 

Is there a command that will tell which mode it is configured for?
