Hi all,
I have an (empty) single-controller FAS2040 with a DS4243 full of 2TB disks, which is purely used as a SnapVault destination. I need a bit more space in it, and somehow a new FAS2220 with 12 2TB disks is cheaper than 12 2TB disks for the 2040.
So this means I need to do a head swap, which I haven't done before. I've had a read of https://library.netapp.com/ecm/ecm_download_file/ECMP1140588 and it seems fairly straightforward, but I thought I'd ask if there's any tips or gotchas I should know of.
Also, what are the platform aggregate limits for the 2220? I know the 2040 had a limit of 22 disks (18 data), but can I add the new internal disks to the existing aggregate (which is 2x9+2 at the moment)? Obviously I'll need to do a reallocate after doing this.
Thanks,
