If my old hardware will disuse, and use a newer model to replace, the the FAS model will create a new cluster, how to move the old cluster's SVM and keep SVM's data and configuration to the new cluster?

Hi Everyone, We’re facing an issue while configuring LDAP on a NetApp array (version 9.16) and need some guidance. Here’s the procedure and details of what we’ve tried so far: LDAP Server Details: LDAP Server IP: 10.x.x.x LDAP User Name: DEV1 LDAP User Password: XXXXX LDAP Connection Password: XXXXX DN: CN=DEV1,CN=Users,DC=powerh,DC=com Port: 389 Steps Taken: SSH : We successfully created the LDAP client via the following command: vserver services name-service ldap client create -vserver svm_power -client-config power -ad-domain powerh.com -schema MS-AD-BIS -port 389 -query-timeout 3 -min-bind-level simple -bind-dn CN=DEV1,CN=Users,DC=powerh,DC=com -bind-password xxxxxx -base-dn DC=powerh,DC=com -base-scope subtree -preferred-ad-servers 10.x.x.x Error When Running the Following Command: vserver services name-service ldap create -vserver svm_power -client-config power -client-enabled true We encounter the error: Error: Validate the LDAP configuration procedure failed. [ 0 ms] TCP connection to IP 10.x.x.x, port 389 failed: Network is unreachable. [ 1] LDAP search for the "dnsHostName" attribute(s) within base "" (scope: 0) using filter "(objectClass=*)" failed with error: Can't contact LDAP server **[ 5] FAILURE: Unable to contact DNS to discover domain controllers. [ 5] Unable to make a connection (LDAP (NIS & Name Mapping)): Result: RESULT_ERROR_DNS_CANT_REACH_SERVER Error: command failed: The LDAP client configuration "power" for Vservers "svm_power" is an invalid configuration. GUI Configuration: Navigated to Storage > Storage VMs > <vserver name> > Settings. Tried configuring LDAP under the LDAP Configuration section, but the error persists across both SVM and Cluster-level configurations. Issue Summary: We are unable to configure the LDAP client in NetApp, even though we’ve tried both the GUI and SSH methods. The error indicates network-related issues with the connection to the LDAP server, specifically a failure to contact DNS and reach the LDAP server at port 389. Questions: Are there any additional configuration steps we might have missed in the NetApp LDAP setup? Could the issue be related to network settings, such as firewall rules, or DNS configurations? Is there a recommended troubleshooting approach for this scenario? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

hi Does SVMDR replicate the configuration of On-Box DNS (load balancing) or must it be done manually like the schedules? Will this option work without remapping? Also, if there is link for that
