Hey Toasters,
I’ve just upgraded one of my HA-pairs to 9.1P2 and wanted to switch to ACP inband connectivity following this KB:
https://kb.netapp.com/support/s/article/ka31A00000012NsQAI/in-band-acp-setup-and-support
According to this KB, I should be eligible for the switch:
::*> storage shelf acp module show -fields module-name,protocol-version,firmware-version,shelf-serial-number,iom-type,state
node module-name protocol-version firmware-version shelf-serial-number iom-type state

24 entries were displayed.
The requirements state that the IOM6 modules must be upgraded to 2.09 (I have 2.10) and ACP firmware must be at least 1.2.2.9 (I have 1.2.2.10).
So I went ahead and ran this command:
storage shelf acp configure -is-enabled true -channel
in-band
After a few minutes, I saw this:
::*> storage shelf acp show
Node Channel Connectivity
------------------ --------------- ----------------------
nodeA in-band active
nodeB in-band active
2 entries were displayed.
But when I ran the initial check command again, I saw this output:

node module-name protocol-version firmware-version shelf-serial-number iom-type state

Out of curiosity, I tried to run the ACP update again:
nodeB> storage download acp
Downloading ACP firmware can take several minutes
and will not disrupt client access during that time.
However, normal ACP recovery capabilities will not be
available while the firmware upgrade is in progress.
Are you sure you want to continue with ACP processor firmware update? y

I then switched back to OOB connectivity, and all is good again:

And now I’m back at the starting point.
Any ideas what’s going on here? Why does it tell me „firmware-update-required“ when I’m already on the latest versions?
