Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • Raidgroup
  • 10TB or larger hard disk drives (HDD)

Answer

Review latest updates to this configuration option -   System doesn't allow creation of RAID-DP aggregate with 10 TB drives

Additional Information

On system initialisation if there are less than 7 drives (the minimum available for RAID_TEC) ONTAP will create the aggregate as a 6 disk RAID_DP aggregate even if it is with >10TB drives
