I believe you can run wafl_check against the aggregate with the R200 up and serving data as long as your root volume is not on it. I'm pretty sure it will take the volumes on the aggregate under check offline. Best bet is to call NetApp support to get a 100% verification.
Since it is only test data, you could destroy the volumes and aggregate, zero your spares, and try creating them again.

Hi,
We have recently upgraded to 7.2.3 and have created an aggregate containing 2 flex volumes however I have recently noticed that the status of the aggregate shows 'need check'.
According to the manuals this means that i need to run a wafl consistency check ran on it (Wafl_check), can I do this while the filer is online and serving data or do i have to boot the filer in to maintenance mode?.
If i was to delete the aggregate and start again would I take it that would negate the need to run the wafl_check? reason I ask is that the volumes only contain test data and this is more feasable than bringing the whole filer down for several hours (its an R200)
Thanks
