ONTAP 9.x
Repurpose 7-Mode to Clustered Data ONTAP
Re-initialize a new Cluster running Data ONTAP in order to downgrade.

Example: Downgrade from 9.5 to 9.3

Issue

When logging into console or node_mgmt lif, the ONTAP CLI displays the following error:

The upgrade path cannot be determined. The upgrade process has existed contact support personnel for the upgrade repair procedure.

This occurs after a re-purpose from 7-Mode to Clustered Data ONTAP or from downgrading to a lower version within Clustered Data ONTAP.
