  • Cisco Cluster Switch (N9K-C9336C-FX2)
  • 4-node cluster

Issue

  • After upgrading ONTAP from version 9.16.1P7 to 9.16.1P11, the following alert appears only for one node in the cluster:
::> system health alert show
               Node: node-02
           Alert ID: SwitchInfoUpdateFailure_Alert
           Resource: resource.node.com(FLX000000)
           Severity: Major
    Indication Time: <time>
           Suppress: false
        Acknowledge: false
     Probable Cause: Information from the Ethernet switch
                     'resource.node.com(FLX000000)' is no
                     longer being updated. Other switch alerts might
                     indicate possible causes for the issue.
    Possible Effect: When switch information is not being updated,
                     monitoring of the switch's performance and health has
                     stopped, potentially leading to unnoticed issues,
                     service disruptions, and loss of communication.
                     Furthermore, the log collection configuration will be
                     deleted after 7 days.
