the link between the adapter 1a and switch FQMCSW2 port 5 is down. Most likely a SFP is dead.

Usually replacing sfp - cable - sfp should address it.

you can also use sfpshow 5 on the switch to get more details on whats going wrong and get sensor readings.

And you definitely should upgrade Ontap to 8.2.
