InterconnectAdapterOfflineAlert
'reported on FCVI port 2a in a two-node bridge-attached stretch MetroCluster with no switches.::> system health alert show
Node: node-01
Alert ID: InterconnectAdapterOfflineAlert
Resource: fcvi_device_0
Severity: Major
Indication Time: Tue Mar 18 09:18:56 2025
Suppress: false
Acknowledge: false
Probable Cause: Physical link on port 2a is offline.
Possible Effect: DR protection of NVRAM mirror might be compromised.
Corrective Actions: 1. Ensure that the FC-VI link has not been tampered with.
2. Verify that the physical status of the FC-VI adapter is "Up" by using the command "metrocluster interconnect adapter show".
3. If the configuration includes fabric switches, ensure that they are properly cabled and configured.
