  • ONTAP 9
  • FlexClone LUN
  • SAN

Answer

  • Mapping two LUNs with the same serial number may cause inconsistency in data service.
  • If mapping FlexClone LUN from the different hosts, the LUN modify command in ONTAP will let users manually set a serial number.

  • Please contact NetApp Technical Support or log into the NetApp Support Site to create a case. Reference this article for assistance with the solution. 

    • The solution requires Diagnostic-level recovery. 
    • The use of Diagnostic commands and recovery steps is potentially disruptive and should only be used with guidance from NetApp Support.
