For HA pairs with two controller modules in the same chassis, the sequence in which you install the controller
module is especially important because it attempts to reboot as soon as you completely seat it in the chassis.
1. If you are not already grounded, properly ground yourself.
2. Align the end of the controller module with the opening in the chassis, and then gently push the controller
module halfway into the system.
Do not completely insert the controller module in the chassis until instructed to do so.
3. Recable the console to the controller module, and then reconnect the management port.
4. Plug the power cord into the power supply, reinstall the power cable locking collar, and then connect the
power supply to the power source.
5. Complete the reinstallation of the controller module:
a. If you have not already done so, reinstall the cable management device.
b. Firmly push the controller module into the chassis until it meets the midplane and is fully seated.
The locking latches rise when the controller module is fully seated.
Do not use excessive force when sliding the controller module into the chassis to avoid
damaging the connectors.
The controller module begins to boot as soon as it is fully seated in the chassis. Be prepared to
interrupt the boot process.
c. Rotate the locking latches upward, tilting them so that they clear the locking pins, and then lower them
into the locked position.
d.
Interrupt the boot process by pressing
Ctrl-C when you see Press Ctrl-C for Boot Menu.
e. Select the option to boot to Maintenance mode from the displayed menu.
6. Repeat the preceding steps to install the second controller into the new chassis.
Complete the restoration and replacement process - AFF A700s
You must verify the HA state of the chassis, run diagnostics, and return the failed part to
NetApp, as described in the RMA instructions shipped with the kit.
Step 1: Verify and set the HA state of the chassis
You must verify the HA state of the chassis, and, if necessary, update the state to match
your system configuration.
1. In Maintenance mode, from either controller module, display the HA state of the local controller module and
chassis:
ha-config show
The HA state should be the same for all components.
2. If the displayed system state for the chassis does not match your system configuration:
