Possible loss of data access: Never slam the drawer shut. Push the drawer in slowly
to avoid jarring the drawer and causing damage to the storage array.
h. Close the drive drawer by pushing both levers towards the center.
i. Repeat these steps for each drawer in the disk shelf.
4. If you are adding multiple disk shelves, repeat the previous steps for each disk shelf you are installing.
5. Connect the power supplies for each disk shelf:
a. Connect the power cords first to the disk shelves, securing them in place with the power cord retainer,
and then connect the power cords to different power sources for resiliency.
b. Turn on the power supplies for each disk shelf and wait for the disk drives to spin up.
6. Set the shelf ID for each shelf you are hot-adding to an ID that is unique within the HA pair or single-
controller configuration.
A valid shelf ID is 00 through 99. It is recommended that you set the shelf IDs so that IOM6 shelves use
lower numbers (1 - 9) and IOM12 shelves use higher numbers (10 and greater).
If you have a platform model with onboard storage, shelf IDs must be unique across the internal shelf and
externally attached shelves. It is recommended that you set the internal shelf to 0. In MetroCluster IP
configurations, only the external shelf names apply, and therefore the shelf names do not need to be
unique.
a. If needed, verify shelf IDs already in use by running Active IQ Config Advisor.
NetApp Downloads: Config Advisor
You can also run the storage shelf show -fields shelf-id command to see a list of shelf IDs
already in use (and duplicates if present) in your system.
b. Access the shelf ID button behind the left end cap.
c. Change the first number of the shelf ID by pressing and holding the orange button until the first number
on the digital display blinks, which can take up to three seconds.
d. Press the button to advance the number until you reach the desired number.
e. Repeat substeps c and d for the second number.
f. Exit the programming mode by pressing and holding the button until the second number stops blinking,
which can take up to three seconds.
