Follow these steps to replace a defective Nexus 9332D-GX2B switch in a shared network. This is a nondisruptive procedure (NDU).
Review requirements
Before performing the switch replacement, make sure that:
-
You have verified the switch serial number to ensure that the correct switch is replaced.
-
On the existing cluster and network infrastructure:
-
The existing cluster is verified as completely functional, with at least one fully connected cluster switch.
-
All cluster ports are up.
-
All cluster logical interfaces (LIFs) are up and on their home ports.
-
The ONTAP
cluster ping-cluster -node <node-name>command must indicate that basic connectivity and larger than PMTU communication are successful on all paths.
-
-
On the Nexus 9332D-GX2B replacement switch:
-
Management network connectivity on the replacement switch is functional.
-
Console access to the replacement switch is in place.
-
The node connections are ports 1/1 through 1/30.
-
All Inter-Switch Link (ISL) ports is disabled on ports 1/31 and 1/32.
-
The desired reference configuration file (RCF) and NX-OS operating system image switch is loaded onto the switch.
-
Initial customization of the switch is complete, as detailed in Configure the 9332D-GX2B cluster switch.
Any previous site customizations, such as STP, SNMP, and SSH, are copied to the new switch.
-
-
You have executed the command for migrating a cluster LIF from the node where the cluster LIF is hosted.
Enable console logging
NetApp strongly recommends that you enable console logging on the devices that you are using and take the following actions when replacing your switch:
-
Leave AutoSupport enabled during maintenance.
-
Trigger a maintenance AutoSupport before and after maintenance to disable case creation for the duration of the maintenance. See this Knowledge Base article SU92: How to suppress automatic case creation during scheduled maintenance windows for further details.
-
Enable session logging for any CLI sessions. For instructions on how to enable session logging, review the "Logging Session Output" section in this Knowledge Base article How to configure PuTTY for optimal connectivity to ONTAP systems.
Replace the switch
The examples in this procedure use the following switch and node nomenclature:
-
The names of the existing Nexus 9332D-GX2B switches are cs1 and cs2.
-
The name of the new Nexus 9332D-GX2B switch is newcs2.
-
The node names are node1-01, node1-02, node1-03, and node1-04.
-
The cluster LIF names are node1-01_clus1 and node1-01_clus2 for node1-01, node1-02_clus1 and node1-02_clus2 for node1-02, node1-03_clus1 and node1-03_clus2 for node1-03, and node1-04_clus1 and node1-04_clus2 for node1-04.
-
The prompt for changes to all cluster nodes is cluster1::*>
The following procedure is based on the following cluster network topology:

Step 1: Prepare for replacement
-
If AutoSupport is enabled on this cluster, suppress automatic case creation by invoking an AutoSupport message:
system node autosupport invoke -node * -type all -message MAINT=xhwhere x is the duration of the maintenance window in hours.
The AutoSupport message notifies technical support of this maintenance task so that automatic case creation is suppressed during the maintenance window. -
Install the appropriate RCF and image on the switch, newcs2, and make any necessary site preparations.
If necessary, verify, download, and install the appropriate versions of the RCF and NX-OS software for the new switch. If you have verified that the new switch is correctly set up and does not need updates to the RCF and NX-OS software, continue to step 2.
-
Go to the NetApp Cluster and Management Network Switches Reference Configuration File Description Page on the NetApp Support Site.
-
Click the link for the Cluster Network and Management Network Compatibility Matrix, and then note the required switch software version.
-
Click your browser's back arrow to return to the Description page, click CONTINUE, accept the license agreement, and then go to the Download page.
-
Follow the steps on the Download page to download the correct RCF and NX-OS files for the version of ONTAP software you are installing.
-
-
On the new switch, log in as admin and shut down all of the ports that will be connected to the node cluster interfaces (ports 1/1 to 1/30).
If the switch that you are replacing is not functional and is powered down, go to Step 4. The LIFs on the cluster nodes should have already failed over to the other cluster port for each node.
Show example
newcs2# config newcs2(config)# interface e1/1/1-4,e1/2/1-4,e1/3/1-4,e1/4/1-4,e1/5/1-4,e1/6/1-4,e1/7/1-4,e1/8/1-4 newcs2(config-if-range)# shutdown newcs2(config)# interface e1/9/1-4,e1/10/1-4,e1/11/1-4,e1/12/1-4,e1/13/1-4,e1/14/1-4,e1/15/1-4,e1/16/1-4 newcs2(config-if-range)# shutdown newcs2(config)# interface e1/17/1-4,e1/18/1-4,e1/19/1-4,e1/20/1-4,e1/21/1-4,e1/22/1-44,e1/23/1-4 newcs2(config-if-range)# shutdown newcs2(config)# interface e1/24/1-,e1/25/1-4,e1/26/1-4,e1/27/1-4,e1/28/1-4,e1/29/1-4,e1/30/1-44 newcs2(config-if-range)# shutdown newcs2(config-if-range)# exit newcs2(config)# exit
-
Verify that all cluster LIFs have auto-revert enabled:
network interface show -vserver Cluster -fields auto-revertShow example
cluster1::> network interface show -vserver Cluster -fields auto-revert Logical Vserver Interface Auto-revert ------------ ---------------- ------------- Cluster node1-01_clus1 true Cluster node1-02_clus2 true Cluster node1-03_clus1 true Cluster node1-04_clus2 true 4 entries were displayed. -
Verify the connectivity of the remote cluster interfaces:
-
You can use the
network interface check cluster-connectivity showcommand to display the details of an accessibility check for cluster connectivity:network interface check cluster-connectivity showShow example
cluster1::*> network interface check cluster-connectivity show Source Destination Packet Node Date LIF LIF Loss --------- -------------------------- --------------- --------------- ----------- node1-01 6/4/2025 03:13:33 -04:00 node1-01_clus2 node1-02_clus1 none 6/4/2025 03:13:34 -04:00 node1-01_clus2 node1-02_clus2 none node1-02 6/4/2025 03:13:33 -04:00 node1-02_clus2 node1-01_clus1 none 6/4/2025 03:13:34 -04:00 node1-02_clus2 node1-01_clus2 none . . . -
Alternatively, you can also use the
cluster ping-cluster -node <node-name>command to check the connectivity:cluster ping-cluster -node <node-name>Show example

Step 2: Configure cables and ports
-
Shut down the ISL ports Eth1/31 and Eth1/32 on the Nexus 9332D-GX2B switch cs1.
cs1# config Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. cs1(config)# interface e1/31-32 cs1(config-if-range)# shutdown cs1(config-if-range)# exit cs1(config)# exit
-
Remove all of the cables from the Nexus 9332D-GX2B cs2 switch, and then connect them to the same ports on the 9332D-GX2B newcs2 switch.
-
Bring up the ISLs ports Eth1/31 and Eth1/32 between the cs1 and newcs2 switches, and then verify the port channel operation status.
Port-Channel should indicate Po1(SU) and Member Ports should indicate Eth1/31(P) and Eth1/32(P).
Show example
This example enables ISL ports Eth1/31 and Eth1/32 and displays the port channel summary on switch cs1:
cs1# config Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. cs1(config)# int e1/31-32 cs1(config-if-range)# no shutdown cs1(config-if-range)# exit cs1(config)# exit cs1# cs1# show port-channel summary Flags: D - Down P - Up in port-channel (members) I - Individual H - Hot-standby (LACP only) s - Suspended r - Module-removed b - BFD Session Wait S - Switched R - Routed U - Up (port-channel) p - Up in delay-lacp mode (member) M - Not in use.

On the same node you used in the previous step, revert the cluster LIF associated with the port in the previous step by using the network interface revert command.
Show example
In this example, LIF node1-01_clus2 on node1-01 is successfully reverted if the Home value is true and the port is e7b.
The following commands return LIF

Bringing up the first node is successful if the Is Home column is true for both cluster interfaces and they show the correct port assignments, in this examplee7aande7bon node1-01.cluster1::*> network interface show -vserver Cluster Logical Status Network Current Current Is Vserver Interface Admin/Oper Address/Mask Node Port Home --------- -------------- ---------- ------------------ ---------- ------- ----- Cluster node1-01_clus1 up/up 169.254.209.69/16 node1-01 e7a true node1-01_clus2 up/up 169.254.49.125/16 node1-01 e7b true node1-02_clus1 up/up 169.254.47.194/16 node1-02 e7b true node1-02_clus2 up/up 169.254.19.183/16 node1-02 e7a false . . . -

If you suppressed automatic case creation, re-enable it by invoking an AutoSupport message:
system node autosupport invoke -node * -type all -message MAINT=END
After you've replaced your switches, you configure switch health monitoring.
