  • Checking from BlueXP, the working environment is healthy.
  • Checking from System Manager or ONTAP CLI, both nodes are online and healthy.
  • From the uptime or logs, node 1 had rebooted, was taken over, and had been successfully given back by it's partner node 2.
  • Node 2 has not rebooted.
  • Checking in Azure Portal, node 2 is started, working normally, but the instance type has not changed.
  • Attempting to change the instance type change again in BlueXP is not possible because the current type is stated to be already changed for the cluster.
