Answer

  • It is normal behavior about the packet loss when pinging due to takeover or giveback actions like the ONTAP upgrade progress.
  • The LIF can be stable after the takeover or giveback is completed and then the LIF moves successfully.
  • EMS shows the below:
Example
Tue Nov 16 15:00:26 CST [Nodename-1a: cf_takeover: cf.fm.takeoverComplete:notice]: Failover monitor: takeover completed
Tue Nov 16 15:00:36 CST [Nodename-1a: vifmgr: vifmgr.lifsuccessfullymoved:notice]: LIF data-lif2 (on virtual server 7), IP address 10.20.30.43, is now hosted on node Nodename-1a, port a0a-88.
