Issue

This article may apply if an ANDU is paused because the partner is not in a "waiting for giveback" state as indicated by either of these two methods:

1. EMS events upgrademgr.update.pausederr:ERROR or the Autosupport EMS alert callhome.andu.pausederr:alert:

Example:

[node-01: upgrademgr: upgrademgr.update.pausederr:ERROR]: The automated update of the cluster has been paused due to the following reason: Node "node-01": Error: {Node "node-02" is not in "waiting for giveback" state.}, Action: {Use the "storage failover show" to verify that node "node-02" is in one of the following states: "waiting for giveback" or "connected".}.

Autosupport EMS:

[node-01: notifyd: callhome.andu.pausederr:alert]: params: {'epoch': '91e735df-158b-4999-8546-5523299458af', 'subject': 'AUTOMATED NDU PAUSED'}
