ONTAP 9

Issue

  • A new node was joined into an existing cluster and the new node shows up healthy and eligible from cluster perspective:

cluster::> cluster show
Node        Health  Eligibility
----------- ------- -----------
node-01     true    true       
node-02     true    true       
node-03     true    true       
node-04     true    true       
4 entries were displayed.

Note: The command cluster add-node-status was introduced in ONTAP 9.4.   Nodes added to the cluster prior to ONTAP 9.4 will not be displayed.  

  • The cluster show command might display a warning:

Warning: Cluster operation (cluster join) for node "node-04" is not complete and the node is not fully functional. Run "cluster join" on that node to complete the operation.

  • The status of the new node from cluster add-node-status shows joining-cluster:

::> cluster add-node-status
Node Name        Cluster IP          Status              Error Reason
---------------- ------------------- ------------------- --------------------------
node-03 169.254.167.42      success
node-02 169.254.10.20       success
node-01 169.254.1.214       success
node-04 169.254.132.149     joining-cluster
4 entries were displayed.

  • LIFs of the new node with role cluster and/or node-mgmt have a UUID instead of node-name:

::> network interface show -role cluster
