I need 8.0 / 8.1. 7-Mode firmware for Netapp FAS-2240.

[Hasan-Bozok]

Hello

I have a device that belongs to ONTAP 8.2.5. I can't activate my existing licenses after a device reset.

The source of my problem is that I have a 7-character license. But my device's version supports it based on 28 characters.

My current licenses are due to the fact that they are compatible with the old version.

Error alert I'm encountering

hostname> license add XXXXXXX
license add: invalid license key "XXXXXXX", license keys must be 28 or 42 letters in length. I get a warning in the form of.

Does anyone have the 8.0 / 8.1. 7-Mode firmware file for Netapp FAS-2240?

If you have it, can you share it with me.

Thank you very much in advance for your support and suggestions.

• ONTAP Upgrades - Non-disruptive upgrades DO NOT require new license keys.  New license keys are only required if the system has been wiped clean and the new version keys are not available on Support Site.  
  • If you require new license keys, work with your NetApp Sales or Support representatives to submit a License Modification Request. (reference this KB article)
