Contributors dougthomp

Reboot the controllers, verify system health, and return the failed part to NetApp to complete the final step in the AFF A800 chassis replacement procedure.

Step 1: Verify and set the HA state of the chassis

Steps
  1. In Maintenance mode, from either controller module, display the HA state of the local controller module and chassis: ha-config show

    The HA state should be the same for all components.

  2. If the displayed system state for the chassis does not match your system configuration:

    1. Set the HA state for the chassis: ha-config modify chassis HA-state

      The value for HA-state can be one of the following:

      • ha

      • mcc

      • mccip

      • non-ha

    2. Confirm that the setting has changed: ha-config show

  3. If you have not already done so, recable the rest of your system.

  4. Reinstall the bezel on the front of the system.

Step 2: Verify storage system health

After the controller giveback completes, verify system health using Active IQ Config Advisor. Address any issues found.

Step 3: Return the failed part to NetApp

Return the failed part to NetApp, as described in the RMA instructions shipped with the kit. See the Part Return and Replacements page for further information.
