Issue
- During an ANDU ONTAP upgrade a data LIF (Logical interface) migration fails causing the upgrade process to pause.
- When a node takes over its partner, the partner's LIFs migrate according to network interface failover target rules.
- In this scenario, since the partner was not part of the data LIF failover target, it tried to fail over to another node in the cluster.
- The LIF migration fails since the target node was not available as it was going through the upgrade process.
Example:
cluster1::> net int show -vserver test -lif lif4 -failover
(network interface show)
