If you have a failed shelf and you haven't been hit by a multiple-disk-failure panic, chances are you are running syncmirror. In this case, once the shelf has replaced, syncmirror will repair the problems.

Hello,
We have just been informed by NetApp that we have a failed shelf and a new shelf is on the way. I forgot to ask before I got off the phone if we would be able to use our trial license of SnapMirror to allow us to do this shelf swap over without downtime?
This is a FC shelf and we only have enough space to mirror the volumes on to a SATA shelf.
Will this work or am I mad?
Take care.
