Issue

Converting volume fails for DP volume with an error:
 

cluster1::*> volume encryption conversion show -volume test -vserver svm1_cluster1

        Vserver Name: svm1_cluster1
         Volume Name: test
          Start Time: 3/22/2024 09:23:24
              Status: Paused on error. Reason: The volume location database (VLDB) is inconsistent with WAFL information. Contact technical support for assistance.

  • The Analytics state or Anti_ransomware state can differ between WAFL and the volume database(VLDB):

cluster1::> set diag
cluster1::*> debug vreport show
