Issue

  • Event log shows:  hm.alert.raised

Example:

Tue May 29 08:09:21 2018 [node-name: nchmd: hm.alert.raised:critical]: params: {'alert_id': 'NoStandbyLifCifsNdo_Alert', 'alerting_resource': 'svm-name', 'detailed_info': 'Alert Id = NoStandbyLifCifsNdo_Alert , Alerting Resource = svm-name', 'monitor': 'node-connect'}

  • System health alert shows:
::> system health alert show 
               Node: node-name
           Resource: svm-name
  Severity: Minor
    Indication Time: Tue May 29 08:09:21 2018
           Suppress: false
        Acknowledge: false
     Probable Cause: Vserver "svm-name" is actively serving data
                     over CIFS through node "node-mame", and there are
                     CIFS files opened persistently over continuously
                     available shares. However, its partner node
                     "other node-name" is not exposing any active data LIFs
                     for the Vserver.
 Possible Effect:    In the event that node "node-name" fails, node
                     "other node-mame" will witness the condition very
                     quickly. If a data LIF for Vserver
                     "svm-name" existed on node "node-name",
                     that node would have the capability to bring active
                     connections away from node "other-node-name"
                     non-disruptively and faster than waiting for the data
                     LIF to fail over and the client to recover on its own.
Corrective Actions:  Create a data LIF on node "node-name" for Vserver
                     "svm-name", or move an existing one to that node.
