As a best practice, you should do the following:
• Resolve any
Active IQ Wellness Alerts and Risks (Active IQ will take time to process post-power up
AutoSupports - expect a delay in results)
• Run Active IQ Config Advisor
• Check system health using How_to_perform_a_cluster_health_check_with_a_script_in_ONTAP
Step 3: Run system-level diagnostics
After installing a new chassis, you should run interconnect diagnostics.
Before you begin
Your system must be at the LOADER prompt to start System Level Diagnostics.
All commands in the diagnostic procedures are issued from the controller where the component is being
replaced.
1. If the controller to be serviced is not at the LOADER prompt, perform the following steps:
a. Select the Maintenance mode option from the displayed menu.
b.
After the controller boots to Maintenance mode, halt the controller:
halt
After you issue the command, you should wait until the system stops at the LOADER prompt.
During the boot process, you can safely respond y to prompts:
2. Repeat the previous step on the second controller if you are in an HA configuration.
Both controllers must be in Maintenance mode to run the interconnect test.
3. At the LOADER prompt, access the special drivers specifically designed for system-level diagnostics to
function properly:
boot_diags
During the boot process, you can safely respond y to the prompts until the Maintenance mode prompt (*>)
appears.
4.
Enable the interconnect diagnostics tests from the Maintenance mode prompt:
sldiag device modify
-dev interconnect -sel enable
The interconnect tests are disabled by default and must be enabled to run separately.
5.
Run the interconnect diagnostics test from the Maintenance mode prompt:
sldiag device run -dev
interconnect
You only need to run the interconnect test from one controller.
6.
Verify that no hardware problems resulted from the replacement of the chassis:
sldiag device status
-dev interconnect -long -state failed
System-level diagnostics returns you to the prompt if there are no test failures, or lists the full status of
