Takeover is not possible:NVRAM log not synchronized due to old RCF installed on switch
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- FAS70
- Cluster Network Switches
Issue
- New FAS 70 nodes: node5 and node6 were added to the cluster recently.
- There is an issue with their HA interconnect that is impacting failover capabilities:

Node Partner Possible State Description
-------------- -------------- -------- -------------------------------------
node1 node2 true Connected to node2
node2 node1 true Connected to node1
node3 node4 true Connected to node4
node4 node3 true Connected to node3
node5 node6 false Waiting for node6, Takeover is not possible: Storage failover interconnect error, NVRAM log not synchronized, Disk inventory not exchanged
node6 node5 false Waiting for node5, Takeover is not possible: Storage failover interconnect error, NVRAM log not
synchronized, Disk inventory not exchanged

- Although the physical links are up for HA interconnect, the RDMA connections are down:
