Hi MammaGutt,
Yes, spare node boots without this HBA, but do not join cluster as is with different s/n and same nodeID=0.
Live node is 1618669-0 with 3.2.2 and spare is 1631924-0 with 3.1.3
I am not 100% sure that HBA is live -- but it was live a couple days ago when seated in old controller. And there's no replacement adapter to check.
Can that be related to some sort of old FW/microcode on controller?

So you need to fix the other problem first....
Did the old node die, or did the old node disk die?
If the old node die, move the disk and see if that helps. You might need to do more (

If the old node disk died, take the node disk from your spare and insert into the old node and do a node rescue.
Also, make sure that the new controller is exact same type and the failed one.
