Applies to
- AFF A700s
- Switchless cluster
Issue
- During a window maintenance, the node is rebooted manually
- After the node reboots, there are cluster communication issues leading to the following outputs
- The aggregates of the partner node are shown as unknown:

Warning: Cluster HA is not working correctly. Make sure that both nodes are healthy by using the "cluster show" command; then reconfigure
cluster HA to correct the configuration. Check the output of "cluster ha show" following the reconfiguration to verify node
health. If reconfiguring cluster HA does not resolve the issue, contact technical support for assistance.
