Failover issue on FAS2554

I have a FAS 2554 with 2-nodes running CDoT 8.3.1. The HA status shows me everything is good. Interface groups, failover targets, etc all check out. I have a root aggregate on each node (partitioned as 8.3.1 is wont to do) and an aggregate for a SVM owned by node1. When I initiate a takeover of node1 by node2, everything works fine, node1 reboots normally, giveback works as expected.

 

However when I do a takeover of node2 by node1, node2 hangs on reboot. Even the SP goes offline. The only thing I can do is a power cable yank at the datacenter. Then, it finally boots into waiting for giveback mode and accepts a giveback.

 

Anyone ever seen this behavior? We even wiped the config and started over from scratch, but get the same issue when I do failover testing from node2 to node1. I don't see any config or cabling issues, so I'm wondering if there's a problem w/ the node or the interconnect hardware.

 

Here's some info, but I'm happy to provide anything else that might help someone troubleshoot.

 

Thanks,

Steve

Hi,

 

There can be various reasons for giveback to fail. Refer  Why is the giveback of a clustered Data ONTAP aggregate vetoed?

If this post resolved your issue, help others by selecting ACCEPT AS SOLUTION or adding a KUDO.

Hello, 

 

When node two hangs have you tried connecting a console cable to the management port and connecting to the CLI using Putty? I'm not 100% sure this will work with the SP offline, however doing this in the past I have come across issues with the boot loader which loads the ONTAP OS.

 

You can find more info on the boot loader commands in the NetApp Knowledge base but trying boot_ontap should attempt to load the OS and throw an error if none is visible right away.

 

 

All the best,

Ryan

Thanks for the responses. A directly-connected serial session to the SP fails, too. The output is frozen until the node is powered off and restarted.

 

As far as the giveback failing, there is nothing to giveback to until the node gets rebooted. Once that happens, the giveback functions as expected.

At this point, if the linked document above does not help I would recommend raising a support case with NetApp directly to determine the cause of this issue.

 

 

All the best,

Thanks, Ryan. I've got a case open w/ NetApp. They've narrowed it down to either a hardware or a software issue. Smiley Frustrated
