Network and Storage Protocols
I have the following scenario. running ontap 7.3.1
NetApp Release 7.3.1.1P3: Mon Jun 8 11:14:54 PDT 2009 on a FAS3140 system.Most of my shelves are DS14Mk2 FC and I have 15k RPM 300Gb drives some are hitachi some are Seagate.
The firmware on the drives is up to date.
The firmware on the shelves should be updated however from what I read, I need to be at least on 7.3.2( i dont know if it will work on 7.3.1 no documention on the shelf firmware download site).
When I had a disk failure the other day I took out the 15k Drive, Netapp sent the replacecment 15k drive however they show up as 10k drives in teh spare pool. When I assign these drives to teh Aggr they are 10k and it inhibits my performance as the Aggr can work only as fast the slowest drive.
I was on the phone with Netapp and one of the engineers told me that its a "cosmetic" bug and that you are only seeing 10k through the session but in reallity its 15k, I dont buy this.
here is what I mean;
NetApp Release 7.3.1.1P3: Mon Jun 8 11:14:54 PDT 2009

btw, i did check this https://kb.netapp.com/support/index?page=content&id=2010818 and it does not apply to my scenario as I have the same datecode: 20080807 NOT LOWER

By the way
You'll be wanting to upgrade the fw on the X279_S15K6288F15 drives to NA01 quick smart
https://now.netapp.com/NOW/cgi-bin/bol?Type=Detail&Display=388753
There was an advisory about it a couple of months ago
hi,
have you checked out this site to? http://now.netapp.com/NOW/download/tools/diskqual/
the datacode you have, is very old then. you should have a datecode like this : Datecode: 20110330. you can see here a date year 2011; month 03; day 30
regards
jakob, I will give the qual packages a shot today and see if that resolves my issues, will post back here in the afternoon, thx
shane, I know about the N01 firmware update. Its interesting to note that my new shelves that came with the x279 are all N01 and the older shelves are still at N00 firm.
I will probably do it over the holiday weekend. thanks for the link
I applied the latest Disk Qual package and my problem was solved;

the last disk was showing up as a 10k RPM disk now its showing up as correct 15k.
BTW, netapp support level 1 couldnt direct me in the right path, I got this from the forums and actually an escalation from a senior level engineer from netapp.
