Add note, to confirm that "shut down the ports" won't break the cluster network connectivity #156

Migrate CN1610 cluster switches to BES-53248 cluster switches

Summary

The "Migrate the switches -> Step 2: Configure ports and cabling -> 13. On cluster switch CL1, shut down the ports connected to the cluster ports of the nodes." is creating some "anxiety", thinking that would create a cluster network outage.

For that reason multiple cases are created in the NetApp TSC.

Would be possible to add a note stating something similar to:

  1. Shutting down the cluster ports in the working switch won't case any cluster network disruption.
  2. The auto-revert stablished in a previous step , avoids any cluster LIF moving back unexpectedly.
  3. DON'T MIGRATE manually any cluster network LIF.
