New to NetApp

Apologies if i am in the wrong area however i am in need of some assistance and wondered if you would be able to help. 

 

I have recently picked up a couple of old NetApp SANS to work on.  NOw I know these are old however i would like to utilise them.  

 

A collegue started working on these and he got so far configuring them but didnt get any further.  

 

The device is a FAS2050 (As i stated i know they are old) running NetApp Release 7.3.7P1.

 

The NetApp has 2 controllers, one has been configured and i can jumpt ont the san using this.

 

The other controller i believe was partly configured but i believe he clustered these together.  using the GUI i can see only 1 controller that is allowing me access.  If i view the partner via SSH I can see the name of the other controller so i know my collegue has done some of the configuration but i can SSH to the other Controller. 

 

My Questions are as follows. 

 

1. If I wanted to reconfigure the network settings for this controller how could i do this given i cant get onto it via the other controller to make it happen?  do i need to console directly onto the controler ?

2. is there a simle command i can enter to specifically list what has been configured from a network perspective on this controller i am having an issue with?   How can i change the network configuration of this controller if i cant access it? Is there a command i can use to jump accross to the other controller whilst SSH ing into the functioning one?  (or would this be a console cable requirement?)  

3.  If i wanted to factory reset this device how could i do it or is there a Command line OnTap that i could stp though or fire up in order to reconfigure this device.  

4. Lasty I had 3 Aggregates on this box,  I can only see Aggregates 1 and 2 but 3 is missing but i can see that it is is till functioning but is it missing from the GUI.  Reason for this? 

 

Apologies if the Questions i have asked are obvious but i am just starting out on NetApps though this would be a good piece of tin to play around on.  (IT IS NOT PRODUCTION before anyone asks Smiley Happy)

 

I thank you for your time and any assistance you can give i would apprecieate it.  

 

Many thanks.
