7-Mode Transition Tool - Cluster mode Simulator Connection Problem

kushneo — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 13:47:43 GMT

When I try to add my Cluster mode Simulator into the 7-Mode Transition Tool it gives me an error message saying "host is not reachable,”. What could be the reason for this error ? & Is there any Configuration i need to do in the Cmode SIM to make this work?

Thanks 🙂

What part of the 7MTT UI are you trying to add it to? Can you ping the cluster management lif from your 7MTT server? What version of ONTAP are you running in the simulator? (hint: 9.3 isn't supported by 7MTT yet).

So after following this article https://kb.netapp.com/app/answers/answer_view/a_id/1028579 and doing couple of changes to my cluster the error message changed to "8.3.2 is not supported by the tool " 😞

You are going to need a much newer version of 7MTT. 7MTT only supports versions of ONTAP that exist at the time of its release.
