Yes, that would be the procedure. As mentioned earlier, you would have post-replacement activity to transfer entitlements and licenses.

It is better characterized as a motherboard procedure, but it is a supported way to change the mezzanine that is being used. Order Qty: 2 of this part and any applicable SFP cables/optics. X3218A Controller,No MEM,CNA,C190,FAS2700 You will need to move over all of the internal components from the old motherboard (DIMMs, NV battery). You will also need to open a non-technical case to transfer your support entitlements and licenses to the new motherboard's system serial number (SSN).

There's a few red flags, here... First, an IOM12 shelf module is not supported in a DS4243 chassis. Second, a DS4243 (or any NetApp shelf) cannot be connected as a JBOD to any arbitrary host. NetApp shelves are only attached to NetApp FAS or AFF controllers.

Is the HA partner down (at LOADER) or removed? You don't want your HA partner to be active while you are doing this. Just assign the disks to one node.

For front-end data networking use, we have a flexible policy. Using 3 rd party optics/cables is permitted, as long as they are similar in technology and compliant with applicable Ethernet standards. Generally, you would avoid active copper and active optical technologies, unless we specifically have our own solutions for them (per HWU). If using another vendor’s cables/optics, best to stick with ones that are approved by the device/switch vendor. So, “Try it – it might work. YMMV”. But since you do not have support entitlement, your options might be limited.

OS and version on the 2010? Try setting the speed manually to 10GbE on the switch ports. It might be an autonegotiation issue.

BTW, you mentioned "FC mezzanine"... I think you are referring to the X1152 10GbE/25GbE 4-port module, right? Just checking... "FC" usually means Fibre Channel to many people.

You require an approved feature product variation request (FPVR) from NetApp to support this use-case. The instructions are included when the FPVR is approved. Your NetApp sales representative needs to file this request.

Data ONTAP 8.1.2 7-Mode has long passed end-of-support and is no longer available on the NetApp support site. The FAS2240 is also end of support. Perhaps a kind soul in the NetApp Community can provide an old copy.

If the replacement motherboard/PCM was from NetApp Support, new licenses would have been generated for the new controller's system serial number.

If your drive model string matches the ones listed in Bug 1335350 and in this Support Bulletin: SU448: [Impact: Critical] SSD (PHM2*) firmware to prevent data loss / unavailability Then the drive is not recoverable in the field. You would need to have support entitlement to pursue recovery efforts that would involve NetApp resources.

Sure... Generally: -C suffixes indicate a part that is included in factory-configured system build/configuration - i.e. config to order (CTO) -QS suffixes indicate parts that are shipped individually and directly from a distribution center (Quick Ship)

Upgrading ONTAP is a good idea. 9.1 went EOVS a while ago, For 9.1-9.3, you would use the cluster unjoin command. https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-cli-93/cluster-unjoin.html I assume you plan to leave the 8080 in the existing cluster and unjoin the 8020 from it. Follow this document to ensure a successful removal: https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/system-admin/remov-nodes-cluster-concept.html Reinitialize the 8020 to set it up as a new 2-node cluster. https://kb.netapp.com/onprem/ontap/os/How_to_decommission_or_repurpose_an_HA_Pair_with_ONTAP_9

I'm not sure what you mean by "online". However, you can certainly use the mentioned procedure to change the mezzanine module (slot 1) from one type to another, as well.

5d.30.1 is a node-level disk path name - the 1st value is a storage port on the node. The ONTAP disk name is a cluster-level disk name - the 1st value is an arbitrary stack number. See this KB for info on how to determine both names for a disk. How to map a disk name between clustershell and nodeshell

More or less. Once the system is initialized, you follow the documented link to assign ownership of all the available data partitions to one node. (Leave one spare data partition to be available for failures).

What is the model? With such a low disk count, you might need to consider active/passive HA configurations to eke out the most storage capacity: https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/disks-aggregates/setup-active-passive-config-root-data-task.html

Just delete the "management-network" switch entries with -force to make them really disappear. switch ethernet delete -device <name> -force https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-cli-9131//system-switch-ethernet-delete.html Also, if you don't use CDP in your management network, disable CDP on your ONTAP nodes. Note: CDP will remain enabled on the cluster network ports, regardless of CDP being "disabled".

This is an E-series E5600-based controller module. I'll try to move your post to the E-Series forum.

I would recommend that you open a technical case with NetApp Support to assist. Do you have MPIO enabled?
