Did the cluster interface failover correctly? can the host doing the API calls "ssh" into the cluster address?

Hi All,

We extensively use NetApp API calls to monitor 7Mode filers, and took
the same approach for cDOT monitoring.

Here is a very unpleasant discovery:

1. Take one node (or more nodes) *offline*, eg power it off for maintenance.
2. Try to run *any* API call against cluster interface and get the
following error:

OUTPUT:
<results reason="RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out"
status="failed" errno="13001"></results>

It effectively makes your cluster wide monitoring useless.

Any ideas? Is it a feature or a bug?

Cheers,
Vladimir
