Hi All
I do have experience with 7-mode systems, and want to try new ONTAP 8.1 c-mode. I'm noobie with c-mode and c-mode simulator.
I think I lack simulator and c-mode setup knowledge. Unfortunately Simulator docs explain how to startup simulator itself, but send me to ONTAP docs to setup the system. Still don't know how to add more disks to Simulator for example.
I installed ESX version of 8.1 c-mode simulator - i.e. two virtual machines = two nodes. Created a new cluster and added the second node to the cluster. Will this config work with simulator and no HA pairs?
1. I don't see aggregates: disk show shows me aggr0 on both nodes, but aggr show returns an empty list.
MauCluster::> disk show
Usable Container
Disk Size Shelf Bay Type Position Aggregate Owner
---------------- ---------- ----- --- ----------- ---------- --------- --------
MauNode1:v4.16 1020MB - - aggregate dparity aggr0 MauNode1
MauNode1:v4.17 1020MB - - aggregate parity aggr0 MauNode1
MauNode1:v4.18 1020MB - - aggregate data aggr0 MauNode1
MauNode1:v4.19 1020MB - - spare present - MauNode1
----more disks skipped------
MauNode2:v5.16 1020MB - - aggregate dparity aggr0 MauNode2
MauNode2:v5.17 1020MB - - aggregate parity aggr0 MauNode2
MauNode2:v5.18 1020MB - - aggregate data aggr0 MauNode2
MauNode2:v5.19 1020MB - - spare present - MauNode2
----more disks skipped------
MauCluster::> aggr show
This table is currently empty.
2. I can't create aggregate, it returns "Error: command failed: Failed to load job for Create aggr1: Not initialized" from both System Manager and CLI.
Some more info:
MauCluster::> cluster show
Node Health Eligibility
--------------------- ------- ------------
MauNode1 true true
MauNode2 true true
2 entries were displayed.
MauCluster::> vserver show
Admin Root Name Name
Vserver Type State Volume Aggregate Service Mapping
----------- ------- --------- ---------- ---------- ------- -------
MauCluster admin - - - - -
MauCluster::> volume show
This table is currently empty.
What am I missing?
Thank you .
Nikolajs
