Hi, I'm trying to configure Advanced Drive Partitioning (ADP) on my NetApp storage nodes running ONTAP 9.15.1P15. I followed the boot menu steps as per the documentation: (9a) Destroy aggregates, unpartition all disks and remove their ownership information. (9b) Clean configuration and initialize node with partitioned disks. (9c) Clean configuration and initialize node with whole disks. (9d) Reboot the node. (9e) Return to main boot menu. (9f) Remove disk ownership. I executed option 9a on both nodes successfully, but when I proceed with option 9b, it fails with the following message: Option (9a) MUST BE COMPLETED on BOTH nodes in an HA pair (and DR/DR-AUX partner nodes if applicable) prior to starting option (9b). Has option (9a) been completed on all the nodes (yes/no)? yes It is mandatory to perform 9a before choosing 9b or 9c, please return back to the menu and perform 9a. Rebooting to clear all env variables due to a 9b failure..Terminated I have repeated the process multiple times, confirming that option 9a was completed on both nodes, but the same issue persists. Can anyone please assist or advise what could be causing this failure?   ... View more

Hi All,   We're looking at a DR test where we would delete a volume, recreate it and restore its contents from backup.   We will need information about the volume properties/settings/etc.   This is presumably somewhere in the nightly .7z config backup we keep but I've tried extracting that mess and can't find anything.   Any guidance would be appreciated.   Randy ...

Hello all,      we have a set of MetroCluster IP with a tiebreaker. I make sure whether tiebreak can still initialize a switchover automatically (tiebreaker observer-mode is set to false) when auto-switchover-failure-domain is set to auso-disabled and automatic-switchover-onfailure is set to false.   Thank you      ...

Hello all - I'm starting out scripting on some Windows Servers that have connected LUNs, and when trying to use Get-NcHostDisk, I get this error: Get-NcHostDisk : Could not load file or assembly 'System.Security.Principal.Windows, Version=4.1.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.   Is there a .NET Framework (or some other) requirement that I'm missing? I can't find any dependency info on what it may be looking for. This is running on Windows Server 2022, and I've tested with the two latest versions of the netapp.ONTAP module (9.16.1.2501 and 9.17.1.2509). Commands such as Get-NcVol work fine so I know I'm connected. ... View more
