Check out the man page for ifgrp create. You may find you will better served using port distribution instead of ip distribution.
when ports are physically connected ONTAP starts looking at layer 2 connectivity. They may get placed into broadcast domains automatically.
using the cli the process is something like this:
delete auto created broadcast domains with the single ports (like e0e etc, broadcast-domain delete -broad Default-*)
create the ifgrp
Add the ports to the ifgrp
if needed set the ifgrp to 9000 mtu
create vlans (which inherit the same mtu as the ifgrp)
Wait a couple minutes
I expect to see a broadcast domain with the ifgrp ports (node1:a0a, node2:a0a). I typically rename this to DoNotUse and leave it
I expect to see other broadcast domains for each vlan. I rename these as appropriate.
you could delete the bd with the ifgrp but if I recall ONTAP may complain about those“ports” Not 100% sure though
