Steps for Reinstalling a Storage Appliance

Upgrade vs. Reinstall Process

Topic Review

What is the the difference between an “out-of-the-box” installation and a full installation?– Full installation requires you to boot from floppies

or flashcard and install licenses. Out-of-the-box requires only you run setup.

What happens when the storage appliance system disks are initialized?– All data on the disks is destroyed.

Topic Review

Name three methods to install Data ONTAP™?– CIFS, NFS, software command

How do you access the storage appliance for configuration via the HTTP protocol?– http://storage_appliancename/api

List steps to prepare for Installation and info needed to complete the install.– Configuration worksheet– Type of install you are going to perform– Complete setup script– Reboot– Verify the installation
