Hello, everyone.
I am curious about the differences between the commands "bye", "bye -g", and "boot_ontap" in the LOADER state.
For example, after replacing an NVDIMM on an AFF-A700s, we execute boot_ontap, but after replacing an NVDIMM on an AFF-A700, we use bye. I would like to understand the reason behind this difference.
Additionally, I would appreciate your advice on the differences between bye and bye -g.
Finally, a 1TB disk is installed in the Flash Cache Card Slot on the AFF-A700.
However, it is identified as a core dump device rather than serving as a Flash Cache.
Is the disk installed in this slot used exclusively for core dump purposes?

slot 6-1: NVMe Coredump Device
