Issue

When storage maintenance runs concurrently with I/O, deleting a directory and its index file before the maintenance scan has accounted for the index file can cause ONTAP to report the index file as lost. The system may then detect a WAFL inconsistency and stop, displaying: WAFL inconsistent. Contact NetApp technical support.
