Applies to

  • NetApp Trident 25.06 and later
  • ONTAP version 9.15.1 and later
  • Ubuntu 22.04 

Issue

  • After expanding an ONTAP cluster from 2 nodes to 4 nodes and updating Trident backend configuration to include new NVMe/TCP LIFs, Kubernetes worker nodes fail to mount NVMe/TCP volumes provisioned from the new nodes.
  • Volumes are successfully created on ONTAP (Node3/Node4), but the worker nodes do not mount them.
    NVMe connections to new LIFs are not established automatically.
    Trident does not trigger nvme connect to new NVMe/TCP targets after backend update.
  • StatefulSet scaling triggers volume provisioning on new aggregates, but mount fails.
