I have a netapp: ModelPart Description F2240-2-12X450-CTL-R5 FAS2240-2,12x450GB,CTL,R5 and the OnCommand System right now tells me it is running Version 8.1RC3 7 Mode. How do I upgrade the firmware and what is the latest compatible version? And step 2: How do I reset the configuration completely to reconfigure it for a simple NFS3 or iSCSI access from 3 ESXi hosts? Console cable is available, I can also telnet into the unit right now. Thank you for support

Hello, We have a metrocluster with snaplock enterprise license. Some files were wrongly committed to WORM and we would like to use privileged delete feature. In order to used that feature, we must create an audit log on a snaplock volume. If I understand the doc, the audit log will inherit retention of the affected files: Note: The minimum default retention period for audit log files is six months. If the retention period of an affected file is longer than the retention period of the audit log, the retention period of the log inherits the retention period of the file. So, if the retention period for a file deleted using privileged delete is 10 months, and the retention period of the audit log is 8 months, the retention period of the log is extended to 10 months. The output of the audit log create command makes me concerned about having a number of drives indelible and unusable (WORM retention period is years...) Warning: You have selected a SnapLock Enterprise volume as an audit log volume. You will not be able to delete the volume and the hosting aggregate until
the volume expires.
Do you want to continue? {y|n}: n I was thinking to create a small aggregate for this purpose... Could someone please clarify if there will be any way to force aggregate deletion? Thank you Lorenzo

Hello There is a problem with the FAS2020. Controller A of the FAS2020 is 7.2.7P1 Version and controller B is 7.3.7P1 Version. I inserted the disk for zeroing operation of the disk, but when entering 'sysconfig -v' in 7.2.7 Version, the disk vendor and model are displayed by manufacturer, not Netapp. It is normally displayed in 7.3.7 Version. The FAS2020 Disk Qualification Package is installed. The script has also been executed with the command 'rdfile /etc/qual_device_v3'. Please tell me how to make the disk display normally in 7.2.7 Version. Thank you.
