  • Transition FC to IP

Issue

Prior to start the transition, the command 

metrocluster transition enable -transition-mode non-disruptive

was not run as requested in the documentation.
 
Further steps done:
  1. Moving cluster interfaces on the old nodes to the new switches
  2. Adding  the new nodes into the cluste
If you run the command later in the process, there will be error similar to the one bellow

Error: command failed: This operation is supported only on a MetroCluster over FC configuration

Trying to create MEtrocluster interfaces on the new nodes will show the error:cluster01::> metrocluster configuration-settings interface create -cluster-name cluster1 -home-node node01 -home-port e2a -address xx.x.x.x -netmask 255.255.255.0

Error: command failed: One or more nodes in cluster "cluster1" do not have HAOSC set to "mccip". Use the "ha-config modify chassis mccip" and "ha-config modify controller mccip" commands in maintenance mode to change the HAOSC settings on nodes in cluster "cluster1", and try the command again
