InterconnectAdapterOfflineAlert'reported on FCVI port 2a in a two-node bridge-attached stretch MetroCluster with no switches.::> system health alert showNode: node-01Alert ID: InterconnectAdapterOfflineAlertResource: fcvi_device_0Severity: MajorIndication Time: Tue Mar 18 09:18:56 2025Suppress: falseAcknowledge: falseProbable Cause: Physical link on port 2a is offline.Possible Effect: DR protection of NVRAM mirror might be compromised. Corrective Actions: 1. Ensure that the FC-VI link has not been tampered with.2. Verify that the physical status of the FC-VI adapter is "Up" by using the command "metrocluster interconnect adapter show".3. If the configuration includes fabric switches, ensure that they are properly cabled and configured.Event logs show the following messages:
