Intercluster LIF issue

Atish1 — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 09:40:05 GMT

Hello,

I performed Traceroute run on cluster1. Traceroute from cluster2 to cluster1 is working fine. but not the other way around from cluster1 to cluster2. There is only problem with Intercluster lif other remaining lifs are pingable on cluster2. There is no problem with cluster1. Kindly suggest.

cluster1::>traceroute -node cluster1-01 -destination 192.168.0.83

traceroute to 192.168.0.83 (192.168.0.83), 64 hops max, 40 byte packets

1 * * *

I am getting below mentioned error on the Intercluster IP only.

C:\Users\Administrator.DEMO>ping 192.168.0.83

Pinging 192.168.0.83 with 32 bytes of data:

with such a command you make a traceroute from management lif

cluster1::>traceroute -node cluster1-01 -destination 192.168.0.83

traceroute to 192.168.0.83 (192.168.0.83), 64 hops max, 40 byte

you need to specify the vserver and lif from which you'd like to make a traceroute

like this
net traceroute -vserver "name" - lif "name" -destination etc....

We added route at destination cluster that resolved the problem.

cluster2::> network route create -vserver cluster2 -destination 0.0.0.0/0 -gateway 192.168.0.83

cluster2::> network route show-lifs
