Migrate LIFs and data aggregates on FAS2820 node2 to node1

Contributors netapp-pcarriga

Migrate the logical interfaces (LIFs) and data aggregates on FAS2820 node2 to node1 before converting node2 to a drive shelf.

Before you begin

Verify that you meet the following requirements:

  • The FAS2820 and replacement controllers have the same ONTAP release and patch version, when possible. Refer to the NetApp Hardware Universe for supported ONTAP releases.

Note
  • You need to netboot and install the ONTAP version on node3 and node4 to match the ONTAP version on the FAS2820 systems. Node3 and node4 are the replacement controllers.

  • Both the primary and backup boot image of the node3 and node4 controllers must have the same ONTAP version.

  • You need to clear any residual cluster configuration on node3 and node4 by performing a wipeconfig from the boot menu.

  • Both replacement controllers are on standby at the LOADER prompt.

  • All required cabling is available.

About this task

The following steps are performed on FAS2820 node1.

Steps
  1. Access the advanced privilege level:

    set -privilege advanced
  2. Disable storage failover automatic giveback:

    storage failover modify -node node1 -auto-giveback false
  3. Disable auto-revert of the LIFs across both nodes of the HA pair:

    network interface modify -lif * -auto-revert false
  4. Display the status of all data network LIFs:

    network interface show -role data
  5. Display the status of the cluster management LIFs:

    network interface show -role cluster-mgmt
  6. Migrate all data LIFs from the storage virtual machines hosted on node2:

    network interface migrate -vserver <vserver_name> -lif <lif_name> -destination-node <node1> -destination-port <port_name>
    Note This command only migrates non-SAN LIFs. You cannot use it to migrate iSCSI and FCP LIFs.
  7. Display the status of all data LIFs in the cluster:

    network interface show -role data
  8. If any LIFs are down, set their administrative status to up by entering the following command once for each LIF:

    network interface modify -vserver <vserver_name> -lif <lif_name> -status-admin up
  9. Display the status of all data aggregates in the cluster:

    storage aggregate show
  10. Display failover eligibility:

    storage failover show
  11. Migrate the data aggregates on node2 to node1:

    storage aggregate relocation start -aggregate <aggregate_name> -node <node2> -destination <node1>
  12. Display the status of all data aggregates in the cluster:

    storage aggregate show
  13. Display the status of all data volumes in the cluster:

    volume show
  14. Display the ha status and ownership of epsilon:

    cluster show
  15. Disable cluster ha:

    cluster ha modify -configured false
  16. Display the ha status and ownership of epsilon:

    cluster show
  17. Halt node2:

    halt -node <node2> -inhibit-takeover true -ignore-quorum-warnings true
