Issue

After a non-graceful shutdown (such as a power outage) and subsequent recovery, if a LIF was previously homed on single-port ifgrp, it may be found on the base port of its ifgrp.
- In this event, you may find EMS errors such as:

[vifmgr_virtual_interface_iterator::move_imp] Well-known error thrown while moving LIF LIF_NAME (1000): Failed to update LIF "LIF_NAME" because port "CLUSTER-01:a0a" is in a different broadcast domain than the LIF's home port. Use the "network port broadcast-domain show" command to identify a port in the same broadcast domain as port "CLUSTER-01:e0c"

[kern_vifmgr:info:5526] [0x8089b2800] [FailoverMgr::scanIncorrigibleVifs] LIF LIF_NAME (1000) has no available failover targets on this node.

Upon running network interface show -lif LIF_NAME -instance, you may see the following status:

Operational Status: down

Extended Status: This LIF is down because all failover targets are either down or otherwise unavailable. Use the "network interface show -failover" command to review the LIF's failover configuration.

You may also be unable to ping to or from the LIF in this case, indicated no network connectivity from that interface.
