SnapMirror fails after switch maintenance when LIFs fail to incorrect VLAN
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- SnapMirror
- Networking
Issue
- Following a LIF failover (such as switch maintenance or storage failover/takeover), on or more LIFs are unreachable
- As a result, SnapMirror between the impacted cluster and a peered cluster fails
- The home port of one or more impacted intercluster LIFs were a VLAN-tagged port
- Following the failover, the LIF is not hosted on a VLAN-tagged port, or hosted on a port with the incorrect VLAN tag
- This may also happen in the other direction, where a LIF fails over from a non-tagged port to a VLAN-tagged port
