Hello and sorry for my english.   I installed new Windows server. On this server i connected ISCSI LUN where will be store Data. This LUN is on my first cluster with ISCSI, 2 IP, one for each node.   No, i have second cluster, so i want to create disaster recovery. In relationship protection, i can do with Volume and select  my DATA volume on first cluster OR i can do LUN Protection and select my LUN/volume on first cluster. But i not sure what is the best to select between the 2 ? volume or LUN ? what the difference ? if the first cluster is down, i want to start on second cluster. If i select LUN, ISCSI IPs from first cluster will move on second cluster if i do fall over ? thanks a lot ... View more

Good day community, unfortunately we had the decision to install firmware version 9.15.1P6 instead of 9.13.1P13 on a new storage we have, basically the goal right now is to find a way to downgrade the firmware version to 9.13.1P13, this storage only has the basic configuration right now, which means there is no data on this storage now. My question, is there any way to downgrade the firmware version from 9.15.1P6 to 9.13.1P13? ... View more

Once encryption is complete, you cannot assign a new key to the root volume and you cannot perform a secure-purge operation''.   is only root volume cannot secure-purge operation or all volume in cluster cannot secure-purge operation?   Best regards ...

We are currently setting up an iSCSI SVM on the DG5000 QLC Storage and encountered a problem in System Manager. It states that controller node2 has no logged-in initiators.   However, upon checking the servers (ESXi) and the storage cluster, we noticed that the active iSCSI sessions are indeed present on both controller nodes.   Additionally, we performed an ONTAP upgrade from v9.15.1P2 to v9.16.0, but this did not resolve the issue. We observed that the virtual machine running on the Lenovo Storage Datastore continued to operate smoothly even after we shut down the iSCSI interfaces on Controller Node1. Further testing showed that keeping only one port active from each controller for all ports that are part of the iSCSI port set yielded good results, confirming that multipath functionality is intact. Not sure, how to fix the errors seen in the GUI. Attaching the screenshots   ... View more
