Applies to

  • ONTAP 9.11.1
  • SVM-DR
  • MetroCluster
  • CIFS

Issue

  • After SVM-DR migration cutover, the CIFS shares may not be accessible
  • The SVM is unable to connect to name services (DNS, Active Directory, LDAP)

Example:

::*> vserver services access-check authentication show-creds -node <node-name> -vserver <svm-name> -uid <uid> Vserver: <svm-name> (internal ID: <id>) 
Error: Get user credentials procedure failed .. unreachable 
[ 9] Failed to connect to 10.10.10.100 for DNS: Network is unreachable ** 
[ 9] FAILURE: Unable to contact DNS to discover domain ** controllers. 
[ 9] Unable to make a connection (LDAP (NIS & Name Mapping):), 
Result: RESULT_ERROR_DNS_CANT_REACH_SERVER
  • DNS is required to discover the AD domain services.
  • dns check returns Network is unreachable

Example:

::*> dns check -vserver svm1 -name-server x.x.x.x

Vserver: svm1
Name Server: x.x.x.x
Name Server Status: down
Status Details: Network is unreachable.

  • The service-policy applied to the SVM's LIF does not have the necessary management client services added

Example:

nas-cm911::> network interface show -vserver svm1 -lif lif1 -fields services

vserver lif         services
------- ----------  ---------------------------------------------------
svm1    lif1        data-core,data-nfs,data-cifs
