11. Connect the console cable to the partner node.
12.
Give back the node using the
storage failover giveback -fromnode local command.
13.
Restore automatic giveback if you disabled it by using the
storage failover modify -node local
-auto-giveback true
command.
Return the failed part to NetApp - AFF A800
After you replace the part, you can return the failed part to NetApp, as described in the
RMA instructions shipped with the kit. Contact technical support at
NetApp Support, 888-
463-8277 (North America), 00-800-44-638277 (Europe), or +800-800-80-800
(Asia/Pacific) if you need the RMA number or additional help with the replacement
procedure.
Chassis
Replace the chassis - AFF A800
To replace the chassis, you must move the bezel, controller modules, and NVMe drives
from the impaired chassis to the replacement chassis, and then remove the impaired
chassis from the equipment rack or system cabinet and install the replacement chassis in
its place.
All other components in the system must be functioning properly; if not, you must contact technical support.
• You can use this procedure with all versions of ONTAP supported by your system.
• This procedure is written with the assumption that you are moving the bezel, NVMe drives, and controller
modules to the new chassis, and that the replacement chassis is a new component from NetApp.
• This procedure is disruptive. For a two-node cluster, you will have a complete service outage and a partial
outage in a multi-node cluster.
Shut down the controllers - AFF A800
You must shut down the node or nodes in the chassis prior to moving them to the new
chassis.
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 node shows
false for eligibility and health, you must correct the issue before shutting down the
impaired node; see the
Administration overview with the CLI.
• If AutoSupport is enabled, suppress automatic case creation by invoking an AutoSupport message:
system node autosupport invoke -node * -type all -message
MAINT=number_of_hours_downh
The following AutoSupport message suppresses automatic case creation for two hours: cluster1:*>
system node autosupport invoke -node * -type all -message MAINT=2h
