There were one of the NetApp was upgraded to ONTAP 9.8, after upgraded there were random trigger this alert, if I disable this policy thought command “system health policy definition modify -monitor system-connect -policy-id DualControllerHa_Policy -node <node> -enable false”, is that will disable the alert when trigger the real alert? EMS log as below:

these are the options as of now: 9.8P79.9.1P29.9.1P3

 

disabling the alert is just a workaround if the alert is annoying you while you cannot perform the upgrade...

Hi,

 

It will disable that alert, no matter it is a false positive or a real one.

 

You could go to 9.8P7, where it is fixed.

 

Regards,

Pedro
