I’ve had this before, spent ages messing with it then I dropped the discs into a spare chassis running 7.3 and ran a full system wipe on it and all was well iirc.
Obviously only useful info if you have a spare head…. FAS250/270 is perfect for the job if you’re talking DS14 discs….

Subject: DOT 8.1 disk in a DOT 7.3 filer
Gents,
My Google-fu is exhausted. I am trying to use disks from an 8.1.3 system in a 7.3.7 filer. I am aware of the disk label problem and I have tried the half-dozen step process (documented in several places) for re-labeling the drives. I'm not able to wipe the label from the drives due to the following:
*> label wipe 0a.17
Error: label wipe not permitted as the disk has a bad RAID version.
*>label makespare 0a.17
*********************************************************
Label editing is highly dangerous and should be attempted
ONLY by NetApp Customer Support Engineers.
Misuse can cause ALL data to be permanently lost.
*********************************************************
'Label save': Error while trying to save Label 1 on disk 0a.17: error 15.
I get this in both diag mode and when booted into maintenance mode. Any ideas?
