    Overview

    Contributors netapp-pcarriga netapp-aoife

    During Stage 4, you relocate non-root aggregates and NAS data LIFs from node2 to node3. You also record the necessary node2 information for use later in the procedure and then retire node2.

    Steps

    1. Relocate non-root aggregates and NAS data LIFs from node2 to node3

    2. Retire node2
