Use the "network interface show -curr-node CLUSTER001-02" command to identify LIFs that could not be migrated off that node. Use the "network interface migrate" command to manually migrate the LIFs off the node. Reissue the command with "-skip-lif-migration-before-shutdown" to skip the migration and continue with takeover.
