Issue

  • A node (node01) causes PANIC below and is taken over by the partner node (node00).

Example of console log:

PANIC  : PCI Error NMI from device(s):RPT(0,3,0):QLogic FC/10GbE CNA on Controller. 
version: 9.1P11: Thu Dec 21 02:32:26 PST 2017

System halting...

  • Giveback doesn't work and node01 stops again.
  • After the failed giveback, the system appears as partial giveback status like the following.

Example of cluster shell:

Cluster::> storage failover show
 Takeover          
Node           Partner        Possible State Description  
-------------- -------------- -------- -------------------------------------
node00         node01- false    Waiting for node01,Partial giveback, Takeover is not
                                       possible: NVRAM log not synchronized
node01         node00- -        Dumping sparecore
2 entries were displayed.

  • After replacing MB of node01 in that state, "disk show -v" in maintenance mode doesn't show any disks.

Example:

*> disk show -v
Local System ID: 987654321

disk show: No disks attached to system.

  • ONTAP is unable to be started up with "boot_ontap" due to "No root volume found" and continues rebooting.

Example:

Storage Adapters found:
0 Fibre Channel Storage Adapters found!
4 SAS Adapters found!
0 Parallel SCSI Storage Adapters found!
0 ATA Adapters found!

add host 127.0.10.1***OS2SP configure e0S successfully***
: gateway 127.0.20.1

Select option 4 from the boot menu to choose disks for the root volume and spare core space.
Target Adapters found:
4 Fibre Channel Target Adapters found!
0 iSCSI Target Adapters found!

WARNING: there do not appear to be any disks attached to the system.
No root volume found.
Rebooting... (press ctrl-c during boot to break reboot loop)
Uptime: 1m54s
System rebooting...
