That is for failover due to KCS being OOQ. Basically, if a node goes out of SAN quorum, it reboots. 

What releases are your two clusters on? May just be a change in the default behaviors.

Anyone have a 4-node 2240 cluster running 8.2.x?

 

If so, could you tell me if failover says enabled or disabled when you do a “cluster kernel-service show” in diag mode.

I’ve had a performance case open for months on this cluster and I noticed recently that this cluster says failover is disabled but our 4 node 3220 cluster says enabled.

 

LCNA2::> set d

Do you want to continue? {y|n}: y

 

LCNA2::*> cluster kernel-service show
