Hello All,
I have 2 filers in HA pair Filer-1 and Filer-2. On Filer-1, i did cf takeover and it tookover Filer-2 fine. Now when I am trying to do cf giveback on Filer-1, it gives error:
Filer-1(takeover)> [Filer-1:cf.misc.operatorGiveback:info]: Failover monitor: giveback initiated by operator
Wed Aug 28 17:47:38 AST [Filer-2:cifs.terminationFailed:error]: CIFS: CIFS did not shut down: There are CIFS users with open files on the partner node. All CIFS sessions for the partner node must be closed prior to giveback.
Wed Aug 28 17:47:38 AST [Filer-1:cf.rsrc.givebackVeto:error]: Failover monitor: cifs: giveback cancelled due to active state
Wed Aug 28 17:47:38 AST [Filer-1:cf.fm.givebackCancelled:warning]: Failover monitor: giveback cancelled
I did cifs terminate on filer-1 and it stopped CIFS service but cf giveback doesn't work at all. Same error as above. That is because CIFS is running on Filer-2. How can I stop that? Shell is not supported on takeover partner!
Should I do Filer-1 (takeover)> cifs giveback -f
If i use cifs giveback -f, will there be any risk?
I would really appreciate any response.
Thanks - AG
