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.17Error: label wipe not permitted as the disk has a bad RAID version. *>label makespare 0a.17*********************************************************Label editing is highly dangerous and should be attemptedONLY 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? RM
