Replacing the primary Admin Node

PDFs
To recover a primary Admin Node, you must first replace the physical or virtual hardware.
You can replace a failed primary Admin Node with a primary Admin Node running on the same platform, or you can replace a primary Admin Node running on VMware or a Linux host with a primary Admin Node hosted on a services appliance.
Use the procedure that matches the replacement platform you select for the node. After you complete the node replacement procedure (which is suitable for all node types), that procedure will direct you to the next step for primary Admin Node recovery.
| Replacement platform | Procedure |
|---|---|
VMware |
|
Linux |
|
SG100 and SG1000 services appliances |
|
OpenStack |
NetApp-provided virtual machine disk files and scripts for OpenStack are no longer supported for recovery operations. If you need to recover a node running in an OpenStack deployment, download the files for your Linux operating system. Then, follow the procedure for replacing a Linux node. |
