I am trying to run a .ps1 script given to me by higher level. Factory Reset the storage system as directed using a macro file. When deploying the environment, fails to assign the first aggregate disk to node 1. Is there a command or setting in Data Ontap 8.3 that will allow/disable changing of node ownership of aggregate disks?

Hi Team, I am almost new to netapp. I am trying to put a plan together for taking the firmware motherborad BIOS from 11:11 to 11:16. Lets say I have a two node netapp, say for example: FAS-Node-01 FAS-Node-02 I do not quite understand the failover takeover and giveback in the attached plan from Netapp. It is not clear whether it automatically reboots on takeover. They tend to mix different scenarios up. In which order I do update a node and check that I have the correct one to start with? I guess what would help is the scenario for FW upgrade would be good! A partner is another name for a node? Like FAS-Node-01 partner is FAS-Node-02 and vice vera. //When I download the FW, does it automatically update the BIOS waiting for a reboot? system firmware download -package http://web_server/path/BIOS_11.16.zip Thank you Larry

Hi, We are upgrading controller hardware by moving storage. Original nodes are FAS2620 with internal SATA drives and new nodes are FAS2720 w/o drives. It's not clear from the official docs if it is possible to move the internal drives from FAS2620 to FAS2720. The documentation says I can move those drive to another disk shelf or convert the original nodes to a shelf. I am following this: https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-systems-upgrade/upgrade/upgrade-by-moving-storage-parent.html Do someone know that? Regards, Pedro

Hi, When we have a stack with both IOM6 and IOM12 (maintaining one speed transition, as supported), does the paths to both beginning and end of the stack goes 6Gbps? Or it will have one side 12Gbps and the other 6Gbps? Regards, Pedro
