FAS2240, aggregation group and HA pair

Hello,

we have recently bought a 2240-4 unit with 12x2TB disks. There are two default aggr0 on each controller composed from 5 disks + 1 space.

I've created on aggr0 on controller 1 a new volume (vol_TEST). When I try a "cf takeover", all VIF IPs are switched to the node where I run takeover but the vol_TEST doesn't.

Is it normal because aggr0 also have root volume and all volume inside aggr0 cannot be moved between controllers?

If so, the currently configuration in our hands isn't usable, because if controller1 fails, we lost access to all volumes attached to it. Is it correct?


Hope someone can clarify me this aspect, because I think that the reseller have sold a solution does't suit our needs.

Many thanks
