We ran into this nasty issue while doing an Ontap Upgrade which lead to a downtime for us.
Ontap Upgrade from 8.1.2 to 8.2P5. Followed Upgrade Advisor and Software upgrade was done. Did a cftakeover and things looked good.
When we did a cfgiveback after 4-5 minutes once the Filer was ready for a giveback the process started and we started seeing..

Netapp Support was called up and escalated. Comes out to be the License DB takes 2-5 minutes to come up and this can happen.
WORKAROUND
1.) priv set diag
2.) registry set nfs.persistent.enable on
3.) check the setting nfs.persistent.enable with the following command:
registry get nfs.persistent.enable
4.) Please confirm that the option is set to on
5.) If it is set to on, please continue with the upgrade
