Replace the caching module - AFF A220 and FAS2700
You must replace the caching module in the controller module when your system
registers a single AutoSupport (ASUP) message that the module has gone offline; failure
to do so results in performance degradation.
• You must replace the failed component with a replacement FRU component you received from your
provider.
Step 1: Shut down the impaired controller
To shut down the impaired controller, you must determine the status of the controller and, if necessary, take
over the controller so that the healthy controller continues to serve data from the impaired controller storage.
About this task
If you have a cluster with more than two nodes, it must be in quorum. If the cluster is not in quorum or a healthy
controller shows false for eligibility and health, you must correct the issue before shutting down the impaired
controller.
Synchronize a node with the cluster
You might want to erase the contents of your caching module before replacing it.
Steps
1. Although data on the caching module is encrypted, you might want to erase any data from the impaired
caching module and verify that the caching module has no data:
a.
Erase the data on the caching module:
system controller flash-cache secure-erase run
-node node name localhost -device-id device_number
Run the system controller flash-cache show command if you don’t know the
flashcache device ID.
