Applies to

  • ONTAP 9.16.1P4
  • ServerProtect for Storage on NetApp

Issue

  • After performing a CIFS server name change and related migration tasks on ONTAP, the ServerProtect Management Console’s device list did not update as expected.
  • The following operational symptoms were observed:
    • Device list in ServerProtect Management Console did not reflect new CIFS server name or updated DNS records.
    • Repeated use of [Test] → [Update] → [Save] in the “Configure ONTAP Management LIFs” screen did not resolve the mismatch.
    • Only after using [Remove] to delete the existing configuration and re-registering the settings did the device list update correctly.
