How to redeploy a StorageGRID Appliance
Applies to
NetApp StorageGRID Appliances
Description
- This procedure introduces a way to repurpose/initialize dormant SGA hardware into a new grid. The appliances were previously decommissioned from one grid, running an older version of StorageGRID.
- Redeploying dormant hardware into a new grid may involve updating the firmware and PGE for the appliance as part of meeting updated minimum requirements for the new version of StorageGRID.
- There are two parts to the procedure:
- Clearing the storage controller configuration
- Preparing the appliance for reinstallation of StorageGRID software.
