Migrate from a switchless cluster to a two-node switched cluster

Contributors netapp-jolieg

If you have a two-node switchless cluster, you can follow this procedure to migrate to a two-node switched cluster that includes Cisco Nexus 3132Q-V cluster network switches. The replacement procedure is a nondisruptive procedure (NDO).

Review requirements

Ports and node connections

Make sure you understand the port and node connections and cabling requirements when you migrate to a two-node switched cluster with Cisco Nexus 3132Q-V cluster switches.

  • The cluster switches use the Inter-Switch Link (ISL) ports e1/31-32.

  • The Hardware Universe contains information about supported cabling to Nexus 3132Q-V switches:

    • The nodes with 10 GbE cluster connections require QSFP optical modules with breakout fiber cables or QSFP to SFP+ copper break-out cables.

    • The nodes with 40/100 GbE cluster connections require supported QSFP/QSFP28 optical modules with fiber cables or QSFP/QSFP28 copper direct-attach cables.

    • The cluster switches use the appropriate ISL cabling: 2x QSFP28 fiber or copper direct-attach cables.

  • On Nexus 3132Q-V, you can operate QSFP ports as either 40/100 Gb Ethernet or 4 x10 Gb Ethernet modes.

    By default, there are 32 ports in the 40/100 Gb Ethernet mode. These 40 Gb Ethernet ports are numbered in a 2-tuple naming convention. For example, the second 40 Gb Ethernet port is numbered as 1/2. The process of changing the configuration from 40 Gb Ethernet to 10 Gb Ethernet is called breakout and the process of changing the configuration from 10 Gb Ethernet to 40 Gb Ethernet is called breakin. When you break out a 40/100 Gb Ethernet port into 10 Gb Ethernet ports, the resulting ports are numbered using a 3-tuple naming convention. For example, the breakout ports of the second 40/100 Gb Ethernet port are numbered as 1/2/1, 1/2/2, 1/2/3, 1/2/4.

  • On the left side of Nexus 3132Q-V is a set of four SFP+ ports multiplexed to the first QSFP port.

    By default, the RCF is structured to use the first QSFP port.

    You can make four SFP+ ports active instead of a QSFP port for Nexus 3132Q-V by using the hardware profile front portmode sfp-plus command. Similarly, you can reset Nexus 3132Q-V to use a QSFP port instead of four SFP+ ports by using the hardware profile front portmode qsfp command.

  • Make sure you configured some of the ports on Nexus 3132Q-V to run at 10 GbE or 40/100 GbE.

    You can break-out the first six ports into 4x10 GbE mode by using the interface breakout module 1 port 1-6 map 10g-4x command. Similarly, you can regroup the first six QSFP+ ports from breakout configuration by using the no interface breakout module 1 port 1-6 map 10g-4x command.

  • The number of 10 GbE and 40/100 GbE ports are defined in the reference configuration files (RCFs) available on the Cisco ® Cluster Network Switch Reference Configuration File Download page.

What you'll need
  • Configurations properly set up and functioning.

  • Nodes running ONTAP 9.4 or later.

  • All cluster ports in the up state.

  • The Cisco Nexus 3132Q-V cluster switch is supported.

  • The existing cluster network configuration has:

    • The Nexus 3132 cluster infrastructure that is redundant and fully functional on both switches.

    • The latest RCF and NX-OS versions on your switches.

      The Cisco Ethernet Switches page has information about the ONTAP and NX-OS versions supported in this procedure.

    • Management connectivity on both switches.

    • Console access to both switches.

    • All cluster logical interfaces (LIFs) in the up state without being migrated.

    • Initial customization of the switch.

    • All the ISL ports enabled and cabled.

In addition, you must plan, migrate, and read the required documentation on 10 GbE and 40/100 GbE connectivity from nodes to Nexus 3132Q-V cluster switches.

Migrate the switches

About the examples

The examples in this procedure use the following switch and node nomenclature:

  • Nexus 3132Q-V cluster switches, C1 and C2.

  • The nodes are n1 and n2.

Note

The examples in this procedure use two nodes, each utilizing two 40/100 GbE cluster interconnect ports e4a and e4e. The Hardware Universe has details about the cluster ports on your platforms.

About this task

This procedure covers the following scenarios:

  • n1_clus1 is the first cluster logical interface (LIF) to be connected to cluster switch C1 for node n1.

  • n1_clus2 is the first cluster LIF to be connected to cluster switch C2 for node n1.

  • n2_clus1 is the first cluster LIF to be connected to cluster switch C1 for node n2.

  • n2_clus2 is the second cluster LIF to be connected to cluster switch C2 for node n2.

  • The number of 10 GbE and 40/100 GbE ports are defined in the reference configuration files (RCFs) available on the Cisco ® Cluster Network Switch Reference Configuration File Download page.

Note

The procedure requires the use of both ONTAP commands and Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Switches commands; ONTAP commands are used unless otherwise indicated.

  • The cluster starts with two nodes connected and functioning in a two-node switchless cluster setting.

  • The first cluster port is moved to C1.

  • The second cluster port is moved to C2.

  • The two-node switchless cluster option is disabled.

Step 1: Prepare for migration

  1. If AutoSupport is enabled on this cluster, suppress automatic case creation by invoking an AutoSupport message:

    system node autosupport invoke -node * -type all - message MAINT=xh

    x is the duration of the maintenance window in hours.

    Note

    The AutoSupport message notifies technical support of this maintenance task so that automatic case creation is suppressed during the maintenance window.

  2. Determine the administrative or operational status for each cluster interface:

    1. Display the network port attributes:

      network port show

      Show example
      cluster::*> network port show –role cluster
        (network port show)
      Node: n1
                                                                             Ignore

      4 entries were displayed.
  3. Verify that the appropriate RCFs and image are installed on the new 3132Q-V switches as necessary for your requirements, and make any essential site customizations, such as users and passwords, network addresses, and so on.

    You must prepare both switches at this time. If you need to upgrade the RCF and image software, you must follow these steps:

    1. Go to the Cisco Ethernet Switches page on the NetApp Support Site.

    2. Note your switch and the required software versions in the table on that page.

    3. Download the appropriate version of RCF.

    4. Click CONTINUE on the Description page, accept the license agreement, and then follow the instructions on the Download page to download the RCF.

    5. Download the appropriate version of the image software.

  15. For each node, revert all of the migrated cluster interconnect LIFs:

    network interface revert

    Show example

    The following example shows the migrated LIFs being reverted to their home ports.

    cluster::*> network interface revert -vserver Cluster -lif n1_clus1
    cluster::*> network interface revert -vserver Cluster -lif n2_clus1
  16. Verify that all of the cluster interconnect ports are now reverted to their home ports:

    network interface show

    The Is Home column should display a value of true for all of the ports listed in the Current Port column. If the displayed value is false, the port has not been reverted.

    Show example
    cluster::*> network interface show -role cluster

                n2_clus2   up/up      10.10.0.4/24       n2            e4e     true
    4 entries were displayed.

Step 3: Move second cluster port to C2

  1. Display the cluster port connectivity on each node:

    network device-discovery show

    Show example
    cluster::*> network device-discovery show
                Local  Discovered
    Node        Port   Device              Interface        Platform
    ----------- ------ ------------------- ---------------- ----------------
    n1         /cdp
                e4a    C1                  Ethernet1/7      N3K-C3132Q-V
                e4e    n2                  e4e              FAS9000
    n2         /cdp
                e4a    C1                  Ethernet1/8      N3K-C3132Q-V
                e4e    n1                  e4e              FAS9000
  2. On the console of each node, migrate clus2 to port e4a:

    network interface migrate

    Show example
    cluster::*> network interface migrate -vserver Cluster -lif n1_clus2 -source-node n1
    –destination-node n1 -destination-port e4a
    cluster::*> network interface migrate -vserver Cluster -lif n2_clus2 -source-node n2
    –destination-node n2 -destination-port e4a
  3. Shut down cluster ports clus2 LIF on both nodes:

    network port modify

    The following example shows the specified ports being shut down on both nodes:

    	cluster::*> network port modify -node n1 -port e4e -up-admin false
    	cluster::*> network port modify -node n2 -port e4e -up-admin false
  4. Verify the cluster LIF status:

    network interface show

    Show example
    cluster::*> network interface show -role cluster
     (network interface show)
                Logical    Status     Network            Current       Current Is
    Vserver     Interface  Admin/Oper Address/Mask       Node          Port    Home
    ----------- ---------- ---------- ------------------ ------------- ------- ----
    Cluster
                n1_clus1   up/up      10.10.0.1/24       n1            e4a     true
                n1_clus2   up/up      10.10.0.2/24       n1            e4a     false
                n2_clus1   up/up      10.10.0.3/24       n2            e4a     true
                n2_clus2   up/up      10.10.0.4/24       n2            e4a     false
    4 entries were displayed.
  5. Disconnect the cable from e4e on node n1.

    You can refer to the running configuration and connect the first 40 GbE port on the switch C2 (port 1/7 in this example) to e4e on n1 using supported cabling on Nexus 3132Q-V.

  6. Disconnect the cable from e4e on node n2.

    You can refer to the running configuration and connect e4e to the next available 40 GbE port on C2, port 1/8, using supported cabling.

  7. Enable all node-facing ports on C2.

    Show example

    The following example shows ports 1 through 30 being enabled on Nexus 3132Q-V cluster switches C1 and C2 using a configuration supported in RCF NX3132_RCF_v1.1_24p10g_26p40g.txt:

    C2# configure
    C2(config)# int e1/1/1-4,e1/2/1-4,e1/3/1-4,e1/4/1-4,e1/5/1-4,e1/6/1-4,e1/7-30
    C2(config-if-range)# no shutdown
    C2(config-if-range)# exit
    C2(config)# exit
  8. Enable the second cluster port, e4e, on each node:

    network port modify

    The following example shows the specified ports being brought up:

    	cluster::*> network port modify -node n1 -port e4e -up-admin true
    	cluster::*> network port modify -node n2 -port e4e -up-admin true
  9. For each node, revert all of the migrated cluster interconnect LIFs:

    network interface revert

    The following example shows the migrated LIFs being reverted to their home ports.

    	cluster::*> network interface revert -vserver Cluster -lif n1_clus2
    	cluster::*> network interface revert -vserver Cluster -lif n2_clus2
  10. Verify that all of the cluster interconnect ports are now reverted to their home ports:

    network interface show

    The Is Home column should display a value of true for all of the ports listed in the Current Port column. If the displayed value is false, the port has not been reverted.

    Show example
    cluster::*> network interface show -role cluster
     (network interface show)
                Logical    Status     Network            Current       Current Is
    Vserver     Interface  Admin/Oper Address/Mask       Node          Port    Home
    ----------- ---------- ---------- ------------------ ------------- ------- ----
    Cluster
                n1_clus1   up/up      10.10.0.1/24       n1            e4a     true
                n1_clus2   up/up      10.10.0.2/24       n1            e4e     true
                n2_clus1   up/up      10.10.0.3/24       n2            e4a     true
                n2_clus2   up/up      10.10.0.4/24       n2            e4e     true
    4 entries were displayed.
  11. Verify that all of the cluster interconnect ports are in the up state.

    network port show –role cluster

    Show example
    cluster::*> network port show –role cluster
      (network port show)
    Node: n1
                                                                           Ignore

    4 entries were displayed.

Step 4: Disable the two-node switchless cluster option

  1. Display the cluster switch port numbers each cluster port is connected to on each node:

    network device-discovery show

    Show example
    	cluster::*> network device-discovery show
                Local  Discovered
    Node        Port   Device              Interface        Platform
    ----------- ------ ------------------- ---------------- ----------------
    n1         /cdp
                e4a    C1                  Ethernet1/7      N3K-C3132Q-V
                e4e    C2                  Ethernet1/7      N3K-C3132Q-V
    n2         /cdp
                e4a    C1                  Ethernet1/8      N3K-C3132Q-V
                e4e    C2                  Ethernet1/8      N3K-C3132Q-V
  2. Display discovered and monitored cluster switches:

    system cluster-switch show

    Show example
    cluster::*> system cluster-switch show
    
    Switch                      Type               Address          Model
    --------------------------- ------------------ ---------------- ---------------

        Version Source: CDP
    
    2 entries were displayed.
  3. Disable the two-node switchless configuration settings on any node:

    network options switchless-cluster

    network options switchless-cluster modify -enabled false
  4. Verify that the switchless-cluster option has been disabled.

    network options switchless-cluster show

Step 5: Verify the configuration

  1. Ping the remote cluster interfaces and perform an RPC server check:

    cluster ping-cluster

    Show example
    cluster::*> cluster ping-cluster -node n1
    Host is n1
    Getting addresses from network interface table...
    Cluster n1_clus1 n1		e4a	10.10.0.1
    Cluster n1_clus2 n1		e4e	10.10.0.2
    Cluster n2_clus1 n2		e4a	10.10.0.3
    Cluster n2_clus2 n2		e4e	10.10.0.4
    
    Local = 10.10.0.1 10.10.0.2
    Remote = 10.10.0.3 10.10.0.4
    Cluster Vserver Id = 4294967293
    Ping status:

  2. Enable the cluster switch health monitor log collection feature for collecting switch-related log files:

    system cluster-switch log setup-password

    system cluster-switch log enable-collection

    Show example
    cluster::*> **system cluster-switch log setup-password**
    Enter the switch name: <return>
    The switch name entered is not recognized.
    Choose from the following list:
    C1
    C2
    
    cluster::*> system cluster-switch log setup-password
    
    Enter the switch name: C1
    RSA key fingerprint is e5:8b:c6:dc:e2:18:18:09:36:63:d9:63:dd:03:d9:cc
    Do you want to continue? {y|n}::[n] y
    
    Enter the password: <enter switch password>
    Enter the password again: <enter switch password>
    
    cluster::*> system cluster-switch log setup-password
    
    Enter the switch name: C2
