Hi All, We have recently obtained a 2-node AFF A300, but the trouble is, it was formerly a 4-node system. Is there a convenient (or inconvenient) way to remove the 2 nodes we don't have, so it can just operate nicely as a 2-node system? Everything appears healthy excepting of course the two missing nodes and their associated volumes and aggregates. I would nuke the whole thing but I don't want to lose the licenses on the two surviving nodes. Unless there's a way to back those up... What would you do if it were yours? Just hate to see it wind up in the scrap pile if the hardware is still perfectly fine. PS Netapp support is expired and not an option for us to renew. Cheers,

Hi all, I thought all Netapp systems work in 520 blocksize but I have just encountered a FAS8060 that is requiring 512 blocksize drives so I can't use it with other Netapp drives I have in stock because are in 520 blocksize. I am just checking that it shelves comes with drives model X306A-R6 and X306A-R5 but I don't find any information about the blocksize. Is FAS8060 only ready for 512 blocksize drives? Could it be set up to work with 520 blocksize instead of 512? How I could find information about what is the blocksize searching for the model of drive? Regards,
