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? ::> sysconfig -a output slot 6-1: NVMe Coredump Device Additional Info: 0X917011900207B0SAM00PM17330001T00015000 Serial Number: S5MTNA0T300108 Firmware Version: NA00 Capacity: 894 GB Sector Size: 512B/sect Thank you! have a good day.

Hi All, I just deploy a AFF C250 for the SAN purpose on one of my custom. But I need some technical advise or view on my current setup as after I setup the bos and present the iSCSI and do the failover testing after the iSCSI LUN already present in the VM, the LUN is missing on the server. Here my current NetApp C250 setup and current physical connection. Here is some summary of C250 configuration and also current environment overview. Customer network overview and connection Management and ISCSI LIF is in the same network segment NetApp C250 node is connected to Cisco C9300 switch - for management (e0M) and iscsi LIF (e0a) Both Cisco C9300 have uplink to the same production core switch The VM which the iSCSI LUN mapped is one VM inside the Nutanix AHV Failover Testing observation Before failover testing by shutdown the node A View in the NetApp System Manager Current iSCSI LUN/Volume is located on aggr1 in Node A and the LUN is online (from the view in in NetApp System Manager View in the VM (the location iSCSI Mapped) The iSCSI LUN is presented in the servers After failover testing by shutdown the node A View in the NetApp System Manager Current iSCSI LUN/Volume is located on aggr1 in Node A and the LUN is online (from the view in in NetApp System Manager View in the VM (the location iSCSI Mapped) The iSCSI LUN is presented in the servers is missing Based on my current setup and connection and testing, why the LUN mapped in the server is missing although when check in the NetApp System Manager, the volume and LUN is online able to failover without any issue? I might need the view and advise on the physical connectivity between the NetApp C250 and the Cisco switch that might be the real cause of the LUN missing due the redundancy setup. Appreciate any view on this matter. Thanks Regards, Zul

Hi all, A customer has an AF200 system wich is near of end of support and we are evaluating if we can maintain this system by ourselves. The most complicated situation I see is if one of the controllers fails and we have to replace it. As I know without support we can't generate replacement licenses if we buy a refurbished controller but what about if that controller comes with its licenses, ¿It could work? Thanks in advance
