when I try to update the firmware on 2 active /active heads I got one one of the head eq-ntap2> disk_fw_update Refreshing information on all the disks....... Downloading disk firmware can be disruptive to the system. It involves spinning down and then spinning up all affected disks, and suspending disk I/O to disks being downloaded. This delay may cause clients to stop responding. NOTE: Updating firmware on some Fibre Channel disks may create an open loop condition which can only be cleared by power cycling the affected shelf or shelves. In a cluster, you should not disable the cluster or perform any takeover/giveback actions until the firmware update is complete. Disk firmware update should only be attempted on one cluster partner at a time. Downloading disk firmware can only be performed when the cluster is enabled, and both nodes are able to communicate with each other. Firmware download cannot be performed when in takeover mode. Refer to the man page for disk_fw_update for complete details. Are you sure you want to continue with firmware update? n disk_fw_update cancelled what should i do? ... View more
