Testing a FSN
We have two new NS960's.
Each has 8 network ports per data mover and configured as such.
All the virtual names were created using the GUI.
LACP0 = cge1-0, 1-1, 2-0, 2-1
FSN0 = cge1-2
Current config shows
*** FSN fsn0: Link is Up ***
active=lacp0 primary=lacp0 standby=cge-1-2
So, when I take the ports down (cge1-0, 1-1, 2-0, 2-1) using the command
.server_config server_2 -v "bcm cge-x-x down"
I see all the ports from the Celerra go down, and the ACTIVE link switch over to the standby (cge1-2), but I do not get any network connectivity for any CIFS. Basically, I cannot ping any of the IP addresses assigned to FSN0.
Any ideas why?

Unplug the cables or down the ports on the switch side
[nasadmin@THIDPNS03 ~]$ server_sysconfig server_2 -vserver_2 :Virtual devices:fsn2a active=trk0 primary=trk0 standby=trk1trk1 devices=cge-3-2 cge-3-3 rotocol=lacptrk0 devices=cge-2-0 cge-2-1 cge-2-2 cge-2-3 cge-3-0 cge-3-1 rotocol=lacpfsn failsafe nic devices : fsn2atrk trunking devices : trk0 trk1 How can we bring the trk0 down at one go?
by this command:cge-2-0 cge-2-1 cge-2-2 cge-2-3 cge-3-0 cge-3-1
.server_config server_2 -v "bcm cge-2-0 cge-2-1 cge-2-2 cge-2-3 cge-3-0 cge-3-1 down"
please sugggest?

You’re welcome
I think doing this outside of the VNX is actually a better test – closer to reality than downing the interfaces on the VNX

Yeah, all ports in the LACP are in the same VLAN and the FSN is also.
I thought I read somewhere that if there is physical connetivity, that it might not fail over to the FSN. Am I wrong there? Also, by taking down the ports on the Celerra with the command that I mentioned, is that the same as disconnecting the port?
