Complete controller replacement - AFX 1K

Contributors netapp-driley netapp-jsnyder

Verify that the logical interfaces (LIFs) are reporting to their home port, perform a cluster health check, and then return the failed part to NetApp to complete the final step in the AFX 1K controller replacement procedure.

Step 1: Verify LIFs and check cluster health

Before returning the replacement node to service, ensure the logical interfaces are on their home ports, check cluster health, and reset automatic giveback.

Steps
  1. Verify that the logical interfaces are reporting to their home server and ports:

    network interface show -is-home false

    If any logical interfaces are listed as false, return them to their home ports:

    network interface revert -vserver * -lif *

  2. Check the health of your cluster. See the How to perform a cluster health check with a script in ONTAP KB article for more information.

Step 2: 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.
