Error: SAN or NVMe LIFs are currently down, potentially causing an outage when the cluster is upgraded. Action: Before upgrading, bring all SAN and NVMe LIFs up using the 'network interface modify { -data-protocol fcp|iscsi|fc-nvme|nvme-tcp } -status-admin up' command. Attempts to delete the FC LIFs fails. To disable the LIF, use the "network interface modify" command to change the LIF's "status-admin" setting to "down".
