Hi, in my lab i'm using a single controller FAS2750 and i'm trying to use the e0a and e0b to connect them to a ethernet switch, but i don't get a link. When using the same cable and make a bridge from e0a to e0b i'm getting a link, but not when connecting to the switch. Same on the switch, when i connecting both ports i'm getting also a link. Switch and NetApp are showing all SFP informations of the connected SFP. I have already tryed different DAC cables and SFP modules with optical cables. The switch is a Mellanox MSN2010. Do i missed something? Kind regards Stefan

A300 have 4*DS224C(shelf ID 0,1,2,3) in single stack. Data aggregates are spread among all disks in this stack. During maintenance window, I plan to move the shelf id 3 to a new stack within the same A300, set new shelf ID as 10 and power on shelf and controller. Does it cause any impact to data? Is there any document or KB for this?

Hello Team, FAS3220, ONTAP 8.2P3 7-Mode. 2 Controllers, in UP Status, hosts see storage resources. We can login through SSH and OnCommand System Manager to 2nd Controller. But, We unable to login on 1st Controller: 1) Through SSH - when We entering correct login and password, SSH session immedeately closed; 2) Through OCSM - got 500 error. We have tried solutions from https://community.netapp.com/t5/Active-IQ-Unified-Manager-Discussions/OnCommand-System-Manager-recieves-error-500/td-p/93621 thread. Nothing helped. Tried different versions of Java: 7.25 and 6*, OCSM 3.0, 3.1 - nothing helped. But, We can login on 1st Controller through console port. We have created a new User with all permissions - Cannot login via SSH (session immedeately closed) and OCSM (500 error). We need to login via SSH and OCSM to 1st Controller. Can You, please, help to locate where is the problem? Thank you!

HI all, after an NVRAM module ECC error/failure of a controller on a 2552 in 7 mode (HA) and subsequent replacement from another controller (cleanly shutdown supposedly), the controller now boots up (the other is in takeover) but won't go in "waiting for giveback" and complains about ownership of a couple of disks which have been reserved by the HA partner: Mar 26 17:11:06 [localhost:diskown.isEnabled:info]: software ownership has been enabled for this system Reservation conflict found on this node's disks!

Also it seems there is no defined mbox disk which I suppose is not good. The partner is in takeover and is working ok at the moment. Issuing a cf giveback doesn't work as the partner is not awaiting giveback (still need to get there hopefully). Any advice is appreciated - thanks!

Hi All, How to beat Pure? I mean this case my client wonders about two offerts. First offerts is my on ASA A400 and second one Pure X50 or X70. What arguments to use to show that NetApp is better? My first think is that ASA can clustering, but what else? Regarts MichuR
