Issue

  • False-positive ClusterSwitchConnectivity_Alert reported in "system health alert show" output.
  • Cluster network cabled correctly and healthy
  • Switch name different from CDP/LLDP

Node: Node-01
Alert ID: ClusterSwitchConnectivity_Alert
Resource: Node-01
Severity: Major
Indication Time: Sun Mar 10 13:38:22 2024
Suppress: false
Acknowledge: false
Probable Cause: The ethernet switch, with the name "Switch-01(FOCXXXXXXXXX)", is not connected to all of the nodes in the cluster.
Possible Effect: If one cluster switch fails, "Node-01" might lose access to the cluster.
Corrective Actions: Verify that the switch "Switch-01(FOCXXXXXXXXX)" is connected to the node "Node-01" and that the switch's name has not been modified due to a change in the switch's link discovery protocol used for advertisements.
