How to ensure FabricPool continue working during StorageGRID Admin/GW Node Downtime
Applies to
- NetApp StorageGRID
- NetApp ONTAP
Answer
FabricPool can continue to tier data and serve recall requests if the configuration is modified to point to a StorageGRID storage node directly, bypassing admin/gateway nodes
ONTAP command :
storage aggregate object-store config modify -server <storage-node-IP> -port 18084 -is-ssl-enabled false
Note: The command may require using the Fully Qualified Domain Name
(FQDN) instead of the IP address.
- Ensure the storage node remains online and accessible during the admin/gateway node downtime.
- If ONTAP cannot reach the object store during this configuration change, the command will fail without causing harm.
