Applies to
- NetApp E-Series
- Drawer Control Module (DCM)
- Input Output Module (IOM) for expansion shelves
- Drive Shelf Models: DE212c, DE224c and DE460c
Answer
Key Notes
- Mixing of IOM models in the same expansion drive shelf is not possible. The same IOM models must be paired within a shelf for full redundancy.
- Mixing of DCM models in the same drive shelf is possible.
- All the IOM and DCM models require different versions of IOM firmware and SANtricity OS else they may not be recognized by the system. Adding these components to a live system running an earlier version may result in disruption.
- IOM12G firmware is exclusive to E4000 controller’s onboard SAS expander and needs to be at listed version for an E4060 shelf to recognize a DCM3 drawer.
