Replacing the chassis
To replace the chassis, you must move the power supplies, hard drives, and controller module or
modules from the impaired chassis to the new chassis, and swap out the impaired chassis from the
equipment rack or system cabinet with the new chassis of the same model as the impaired chassis.
Before you begin
All other components in the system must be functioning properly; if not, you must contact
technical support.
About this task
• You can use this procedure with all versions of ONTAP supported by your system.
• This procedure is written with the assumption that you are moving all drives and controller
module or modules to the new chassis, and that the chassis is a new component from NetApp.
• This procedure is disruptive. For a two-node cluster, you will have a complete service outage
and a partial outage in a multi-node cluster.

Shutting down the node
You must shut down the node or nodes in the chassis prior to moving them to the new chassis.
Before you begin
• If you have a cluster with more than two nodes, it must be in quorum. If the cluster is not in
quorum or a healthy node shows false for eligibility and health, you must correct the issue
before shutting down the impaired node.

Steps
1. If your system has two controller modules, disable the HA pair.
