As far as I can see on Hardware universe, DS4486 is still supported on 9.12=
.1 ??

But you are right, if ONTAP wants to control which disks are in which raid =
groups, it may become an issue=85 it may make good sense, but when going fr=
om an existing setup by moving the disks over will require some planning ??

Anyway, I think the idea is deal because it looks like only SATA and MSATA =
is supported in the caddies, and my existing disks are SAS=85

Do not do it. That shelf is end of support. It won=92t work properly on cur=
rent ONTAP versions



Disk failures are a pain. ONTAP prevents two disks in the same caddy from b=
eing in the same raid group. When a disk does fail it has to fail the servi=
ng drives in the caddy and you replaced two at a time

Subject: Migration to DS4486 shelf?



Hi there



Because of space constraints I am planning to move my 3 pcs. DS212C into a =
DS4486.

But I have a few questions ??

My existing disks are X318 (8TB NL-SAS), and I think the caddies for the DS=
4486 are also SAS, so that should technically fit?



Does the NetApp see 24 or 48 disks from the DS4486?  Because I plan to reus=
e existing disks with aggregates on them=85



I can see the DS4486 use special PN as spare disks because the caddy has tw=
o disks installed.  How does NetApp handle the replacement when one disk of=
 the two dies?

I know the healthy disk is also copied to a spare before you can replace th=
e caddy, but do you then replace both disks, or do you just replace the bro=
ken disk of the two?



I also have plans on replacing the IOM6 modules with IOM12 just as you can =
in the DS4246 shelfs..  any issues with that?



I know this is close if not far beyond what is supported ??
