Transferring the boot image to the boot media
The replacement boot media that you installed is without a boot image so you need to transfer a boot image
using a USB flash drive.
B B e e f f o o r r e e y y o o u u b b e e g g i i n n
• You must have a USB flash drive, formatted to MBR/FAT32, with at least 4GB capacity
• A copy of the same image version of ONTAP as what the impaired controller was running. You can
download the appropriate image from the Downloads section on the Lenovo Data Center Support Site
– If NVE is enabled, download the image with Lenovo Volume Encryption, as indicated in the download
button.
– If NVE is not enabled, download the image without Lenovo Volume Encryption, as indicated in the
download button.
• If your system is an HA pair, you must have a network connection.
• If your system is a stand-alone system you do not need a network connection, but you must perform an
additional reboot when restoring the var file system.

Step 1.
Download and copy the appropriate service image from the Lenovo Data Center Support Site to
the USB flash drive.
a.
Download the service image to your work space on your laptop.
b.
Unzip the service image.
Note: If you are extracting the contents using Windows, do not use winzip to extract the
netboot image. Use another extraction tool, such as 7-Zip or WinRAR.
There are two folders in the unzipped service image file:
• boot
• efi
c.
Copy the efi folder to the top directory on the USB flash drive.
The USB flash drive should have the efi folder and the same image version of ONTAP as what
the impaired controller was running.
d.
Remove the USB flash drive from your laptop.
