Applies to

  • ONTAP 9
  • FlexGroup

Issue

  • FlexGroup creation fails with the following message:
Cluster01::> volume create -vserver svm1 -volume fg01 -auto-provision-as flexgroup -size 50TB -space-guarantee none -junction-path /fg01
 
Error: command failed: At least one aggregate assigned to Vserver
"svm1" with sufficient space and a homogeneous storage type is
required on every node on the cluster to provision a FlexGroup volume.
  • There are adequate available aggregates and aggregate space
  • Desired aggregates are included in the SVM's aggregate list:
Cluster01::> vserver show -vserver svm1 -fields aggr-list
vserver       aggr-list
------------- ---------------------------
svm1          aggr01,aggr02,aggr03,aggr04
