  • 1.  HNAS 3080 Decommission

    Posted 04-26-2023 02:47

    I am planning to decommission HNAS 3080 in my environment. HUS 150 is the backend device. Am looking for steps/procedure to proceed it. Please someone could help with it, if any docs or steps/procedure available?
    Note: Data are already migrated to new device.

    I would recommend the following:
    1. Delete all the shares/exports on the HNAS.
    2. Delete all the Filesystems on the HNAS.
    3. Delete all the Storage Pools on the HNAS.
    4. Delete all the EVS in the HNAS
    5. On HUS 150, unmap all the LUNS to the HNAS HG.
    6. the SD will be greyed out. Delete all the SD on the HNAS.
    7. Shutdown the HNAS cluster Nodes.

    @Gobinath Palanisamy that information really helps !

    Beyond what @Hassaan Pasha recommends, there is alway using the factory default process/file that would wipe the servers clean. This file should be available as part of the full PDL and there is also associated documentation. We've had CSS folks wipe servers on many an occasion.

    Thanks Albert Hagopian, I think there is no option for factory reset in SMU. Do we have any command to perform factory reset in CLI?

    I wager that given the age of your system, you are dealing with something like and SMU 300 or 400; which at this point you should place the SMU in the dumpster or take the drive out and destroy it.

    I'm really unsure what you are trying to do and why.

    Thanks Hassaan Pasha for the steps. I believe below steps will be apply for HUS150,

    1 Delete Luns
    2 Delete DP Pools
    3 Delete RAID Groups
    4 Delete User profile if anything created
