If you removed the media converters (QSFPs or SFPs), remember to reinstall them if you are using fiber
optic cables.
2. Return the node to normal operation by giving back its storage:
storage failover giveback
-ofnode
impaired_node_name
3. If automatic giveback was disabled, reenable it:
storage failover modify -node local -auto
-giveback true
Step 7: Switch back aggregates in a two-node MetroCluster configuration
After you have completed the FRU replacement in a two-node MetroCluster
configuration, you can perform the MetroCluster switchback operation. This returns the
configuration to its normal operating state, with the sync-source storage virtual machines
(SVMs) on the formerly impaired site now active and serving data from the local disk
pools.
This task only applies to two-node MetroCluster configurations.
Steps
1. Verify that all nodes are in the
enabled
state:
metrocluster node show
cluster_B::> metrocluster node show
DR Configuration DR
Group Cluster Node State Mirroring Mode
----- ------- -------------- -------------- ---------
--------------------
1 cluster_A
controller_A_1 configured enabled heal roots
completed
cluster_B
controller_B_1 configured enabled waiting for
switchback recovery
2 entries were displayed.
2. Verify that resynchronization is complete on all SVMs:
metrocluster vserver show
3. Verify that any automatic LIF migrations being performed by the healing operations were completed
successfully:
metrocluster check lif show
4. Perform the switchback by using the
metrocluster switchback
command from any node in the
surviving cluster.
5. Verify that the switchback operation has completed:
metrocluster show
The switchback operation is still running when a cluster is in the
waiting-for-switchback
state:
41
