Disabling TSSE keeps failing due to background deduplication running on aggregate
Applies to
- ONTAP 9.8 +
- AFF
- Temperature Sensitive Storage Efficiency (TSSE)
Issue
While following steps to disable TSSE on FlexGroup or FlexVol cannot complete.
- In the following example FlexGroup Members 0005 and 0009 failed.
Cluster::*> volume efficiency modify -compression true -compression-type adaptive -application-io-size 8k -vserver svm1 -volume FlexGroup
[Job 38752] Steps completed: 7 of 10.
Error: command failed: [Job 38752] Job failed: Failed to modify efficiency configuration for volume "FlexGroup" of Vserver "svm1": The following constituents failed to have efficiency changes applied: 5,9. The error was the same for all constituents, and was "Failed to set compression type and application I/O size on the volume. Switching between compression type or application I/O size is allowed only after undoing the compression savings on the volume.".
- EMS log reports an error event as below:
Tue Nov 21 10:21:44 -0800 [node-01: f: sis.undo.aborted:error]: SIS undo operation for '/vol/FlexGroup__0005@vserver:777cf27d-d075-11ec-8cd0-d039ea3b58dd' has aborted: 'Undo or revert operation cannot be done since background deduplication is running on volume or aggregate. Wait for it to complete and then retry this command.'.

command output also displays the same message as "Last Operation Error: Undo or revert operation cannot be done since background deduplication is running on volume or aggregate. Wait for it to complete and then retry this command."
