If NVE is not enabled, download the image without NetApp Volume Encryption, as indicated in the

• If your system is an HA pair, you must have a network connection.
• If your system is a stand-alone system you do not need a network connection, but you must perform an
additional reboot when restoring the var file system.
Steps
1. Align the end of the controller module with the opening in the chassis, and then gently push the controller
module halfway into the system.
2. Reinstall the cable management device and recable the system, as needed.
When recabling, remember to reinstall the media converters (SFPs) if they were removed.
3. Insert the USB flash drive into the USB slot on the controller module.
Make sure that you install the USB flash drive in the slot labeled for USB devices, and not in the USB
console port.
4. Push the controller module all the way into the system, making sure that the cam handle clears the USB
flash drive, firmly push the cam handle to finish seating the controller module, push the cam handle to the
closed position, and then tighten the thumbscrew.
The controller begins to boot as soon as it is completely installed into the chassis.
5. Interrupt the boot process to stop at the LOADER prompt by pressing Ctrl-C when you see Starting
AUTOBOOT press Ctrl-C to abort….
If you miss this message, press Ctrl-C, select the option to boot to Maintenance mode, and then halt the
controller to boot to LOADER.
6. For systems with one controller in the chassis, reconnect the power and turn on the power supplies.
The system begins to boot and stops at the LOADER prompt.
7. Set your network connection type at the LOADER prompt:
◦
If you are configuring DHCP:
ifconfig e0a -auto
The target port you configure is the target port you use to communicate with the
impaired controller from the healthy controller during var file system restore with a
network connection. You can also use the e0M port in this command.
◦
If you are configuring manual connections:
ifconfig e0a -addr=filer_addr -mask=netmask
-gw=gateway-dns=dns_addr-domain=dns_domain
▪
filer_addr is the IP address of the storage system.
▪
netmask is the network mask of the management network that is connected to the HA partner.
▪
gateway is the gateway for the network.
▪
dns_addr is the IP address of a name server on your network.
▪
dns_domain is the Domain Name System (DNS) domain name.
