Pardon me as I have very little NetApp experience. We have a legacy FA2040 device running Ontap 7G. It is currently out of warranty so we are looking for some advice. We recently replaced a failed hard drive with refurbished one (same model) and the light for the drive is now green. When we go to review the status of the drive with command sysconfig -a, it shows the drive as 'Not available' with a size of 0.0GB. Does anyone have any insight or steps we can take to troubleshoot this drive? Any advice is welcome. Thanks!
Attached are the results from sysconfig -a and from our FilerView (Disk Report)
Looks like you are hitting a known issue:

The X289 drive is a faulty drive identifier. Looks like they should be X411 instead. The KB article talks about it.
That is likely why it is not picking up correctly.
Actually finding a number of articles. You may want to contact support to see if they would suggest a better path.
Thank you TMAC, we are looking into the first suggestion you provided and reviewing other articles as well before making any changes. I will update this message as soon as we resolve it.
hi
Check whether the disk microcode is compatible with the storage device, check whether the disk is a bad disk, etc., then it is recommended to remove the disk again, and the worst result is to buy a new disk
