Incorrect port gets automatically set as Cluster port during Cluster Setup
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Cluster Ports: What are the default Cluster Network ports for each platform?
Issue
- During cluster setup the system keeps using different ports
- Example:
- X60132A Card is installed in slots 1 and 2, intended to be used as Host card
- X60130A Card is installed in slots 3 and 4, intended to be used as NVMe Storage network and Cluster network connections
- Example:
- The desired port is not detected as cluster port, has to be set manually after booting ONTAP
- An incorrect port is detected as cluster port and marked as HA Interconnect
- Cabling has both desired ports connected to cluster switch, while the other ports are connected to data switch, as per the installation guide
