Cluster applications fail to come online after controller upgrade procedure
Applies to
- ONTAP 9.5 and later
- Controller upgrade (head swap) with platforms using different cluster interconnect ports (Example: FAS8200 [e0a/e0b] to FAS8300 e0c/e0d])
- Controller upgrade on ONTAP 9.5+ not using the "system controller replace" procedure
- Controller upgrade with simultaneous controller hardware and ONTAP software upgrade
Issue
- After replacing both controllers with newer platform controllers, cluster applications fail to come online
