Applies to

  • NetApp Console
  • NetApp Backup and Recovery
  • Intercluster LIF
  • ONTAP 9

Answer

Yes, but it is not recommended because Cluster management LIF cannot fail over to cluster or intercluster ports.

Note: Even when used for Backup and Recovery, Intercluster LIF is still subject to the same restrictions as in the case of SnapMirror.
