If your system is in…
Then perform these steps…
A stand-alone configuration
a. With the cam handle in the open position, firmly push the
controller module in until it meets the midplane and is fully seated,
and then close the cam handle to the locked position.
Do not use excessive force when sliding the
controller module into the chassis to avoid
damaging the connectors.
b. If you have not already done so, reinstall the cable management
device.
c. Bind the cables to the cable management device with the hook
and loop strap.
d. Reconnect the power cables to the power supplies and to the
power sources, turn on the power to start the boot process, and
then press
Ctrl-C
after you see the
Press Ctrl-C for Boot
Menu
message.
If you miss the prompt and the controller module
boots to ONTAP, enter
halt
, and then at the
LOADER prompt enter
boot_ontap
, press
Ctrl-
C
when prompted, and then boot to Maintenance
mode.
e. From the boot menu, select the option for Maintenance mode.
Important:
During the boot process, you might see the following prompts:
◦
A prompt warning of a system ID mismatch and asking to override the system ID.
◦
A prompt warning that when entering Maintenance mode in an HA configuration you must ensure that
the healthy controller remains down.
You can safely respond
y
to these prompts.
Restore and verify the system configuration - FAS2600
After completing the hardware replacement and booting to Maintenance mode, you verify
the low-level system configuration of the replacement controller and reconfigure system
settings as necessary.
Step 1: Set and verify system time after replacing the controller
You should check the time and date on the replacement controller module against the healthy controller
module in an HA pair, or against a reliable time server in a stand-alone configuration. If the time and date do
not match, you must reset them on the replacement controller module to prevent possible outages on clients
due to time differences.
