We're keeping data on the current disk but clearly we have to buy new disk for the root volumes since Netapp won't let you use ADP on the 8200. Converting the FAS2552 to a shelf is the endgame.
Currently we don't have cluster switches but by the sounds of it that is going to be an essential component in the migration. What the steps are for that migration is the bit that nobody seems to be able to figure out :(

Do you have cluster switches that came with the 8200?

Currently we have a FAS2552 switchless cluster running 9.1. We're planning an upgrade to FAS8200 and considering our migration options. Netapp themselves aren't being terribly forthcoming on the best route to do this.
I had hoped that upgrading from a FAS25xx would be a common thing with a reference workflow to go with it. Maybe things are complicated somewhat because the FAS2552 runs ADP and the FAS8200 doesn't. Has anyone been through a similar process or have any recommendations for a route to achieve this?
Thanks,
