Volume not tiering data with aborted-nospace error
Applies to
- ONTAP 9.9.1+
 - FabricPool
 - MetroCluster
 - unmirrored aggregate
 - Volume encryption conversion
 
Issue
- After an update to ONTAP 9.9.1+, data in unmirrored MetroCluster aggregates are no longer tiering to the FabricPool.
 - Tiering for the volumes is in a 
readystate and the previous run aborts with theaborted-nospaceerror:
