Hello, We have FAS2520 with two nodes, unfortunately the one node is down. below is the result of cluster show -node command Node: XXXX-NODE01 Eligibility: true Health: false All shares and datastore are still available now. how can we bring this node back up? and how to identify the root cause of this issue? we have receive this alert when the issue happen: System Alert from SP of XXXX-NODE01 (REBOOT (watchdog reset)) CRITICAL Thanks for your answer and help

Dear All Can anyone share/offer smart solutions (tools / scripts / dev ops/ hybrid solution - effortlessly monitoring snapmirror replication lags in most commonly face /repeated issues? (be it network bandwidth related, ontap..etc) via Generative AI?.. 😉 the use of generative ai ?? to more accurately predicting underlying snapmirror replication to (nearstore/ storageGrid) issues to occur & suggestions to MORE COMPLEX root cause analysis, (e.g. Integration/ hybrid solutions use of Netapp / Azure cloud services) Prediction of SnapMirror Time to Completion based on past /current bandwidth throttle. auto calculate how much additional bandwidth requirement to fulfill replication in time with increasing data/ changes. the solution should offer smart solution (based on past data (e.g. replication throttle), it might not able finish replication in time, suggesting how much EXTRA bandwidth required). INSIGHTS on STUCKED replication.. .snapshots delta / data inconsistencies / status HUNG/ not moving, despite it shows transferring, inconsistency state between ontap database during vol move, be it problem is from PRIMARY/ TARGET Nearstore/Grid etc, better efficiency to QUICKLY revealing where are the bottlenecks, replications that failed due to volume full or cluster/vserver peering issues or duplicate IP address, offline volume/aggregate or other issues, destination unreachable...etc being flagged out.. auto fixed/healing. e.g. vol full auto increase as long aggregate threshold limit not hit..etc.. past performance data readings served as a benchmarking/ baseline to detect any abnormality in bandwidth throttle. (sudden data surge which current bandwidth no longer able to fulfil SLA within stipulated time..etc. i find the netapp aiq does not provide in-depth troubleshooting to quickly suggest where is root cause/ underlying issues.? thus requiring lots manual works (codings, process handlings etc, required. INTENTION is also to automate manual fix of repetitive, re-occuring common issues in snapmirror 😉 whenever possible. in the past, such made via tools, little easier to manage, estimate remaining to finishing time. but with newer ontap, such tool no longer available/nor supported, thus may require to write own script to extract required info for such prediction. https://community.netapp.com/t5/ONTAP-Discussions/Predicting-SnapMirror-transfer-size-required-bandwidth/td-p/75915?attachment-id=2096 e.g. Snapmirror: destination: Mirror relationship is source to destination Source: svm1:volume1 Destination: svm2:volume1 Status: Transferring Progress: 50% Last Transfer Size: 10GB Last Transfer Duration: 30 minutes Remaining Transfer Bytes: 5GB Estimated Time to Completion: 1 hour if anyone has better ideas/ effective solutions to offer/discuss, would be greatly appreciated the kind gestures. looking forward for anyone who can shed some lights/brainstorm on this topic,, its time for making use of Generative AI 😉 thank YOU & have wonderful days ahead. 😉

We have 2 Shares on same Vserver, we were able to connect to both shares at same time with different service account credentials , but now only one at a time is getting connected. While connecting with IP's it is working fine, but not with names i have found the below KB Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user is not allowed error while accessing CIFS share - NetApp Knowledge Base [kb.netapp.com] But still have queries How both the shares using same vserver were accessible from the same source server via different credentials from the migration date till now . Please note the team was using the named CIFS path for i2q and Tips shares. Is there any way to set the primary and secondary on the share level? we should not use the Ip addresses directly. The naming convention should be used. Please advise.

Hi We are currently testing the use of MAV which is supported in Ontap 9.11.1x. As I see it, it is only possible to create local users as approvers, does anyone know if there will be support for using AD groups as a approvers. ? The idea is via. automation that a user is temporarily members of a AD group to approve pending approver

The newest NetApp Powershell Toolkit (9.14.1.2401) is very buggy. Anyone other has this problem? For example a Invoke-NcSnapmirrorInitialize does a resync (instead of initialize) on a SnapMirror relationship. The command neither returns the jobId as stated in the documentation: DESCRIPTION Performs the initial update of a SnapMirror relationship. This API is usually used after New-NcSnapmirror, but it can be used alone, that is, without New-NcSnapmirror, to create and initially update a SnapMirror relationship. A job will be spawned to operate on the SnapMirror relationship, and the job id will be returned. The progress of the job can be tracked using the job cmdlets. Output from the command: NcController : cluster01 ErrorCode : ErrorMessage : JobId : JobVserver : svm09 Status : running Uuid : 10a75543-021d-11ef-b77f-00a098daf8c1 Message : When working with the -ONTAPI switch at least the initialize works as expected. There are some others problems as well.
