Found my answer;  Thank you!
I was in the process of upgrading a VNX5300 to VNX for File 7.1.76-4, during the Pre-Upgrade Health Check I got the following error:  Status:               error Message ID:      HC_CS_14505082882 Symptom:         The following error occurred getting the status of the statistic groups database: CRITICAL (9127002166): The Statistic                                    Groups database does not exist.  I found the following KB: KB000365336 For the error : CRITICAL (9127002166): The Statistic Groups database does not exist. Check for /nbsnas/stat_groups folder existance. If it is not exist, run the following commands to fix : mkdir /nbsnas/stat_groupsln -s /nbsnas/stat_groups stat_groupsnas_stats -groups -database -recover -Force <- when this command finishes, it will populate the folder Re-run "nas_stats -groups -database -verify" to verify the fix.  Then I tried to run the recover command but got the following error: [root[NAME] /]# nas_stats -groups -database -recover -Force Database was never backed up. A fresh database can be installed.  Thus my question, how to install a fresh database for nas_stats?  Thank you!
