Background disk firmware updates affect HA pair takeover, giveback, and aggregate relocation operations differently, depending on how those operations are initiated.
If the background disk firmware update takes longer than 120 seconds, takeover operations are aborted and must be restarted manually after the disk firmware update finishes. If the takeover was initiated with the -bypass-optimization parameter of the storage failover takeover command set to true, the background disk firmware update occurring on the destination node does not affect the takeover.
If the background disk firmware update takes longer than 120 seconds, giveback operations are aborted and must be restarted manually after the disk firmware update completes.
If the background disk firmware update takes longer than 120 seconds, aggregate relocation operations are aborted and must be restarted manually after the disk firmware update finishes. If aggregate relocation was initiated with the -override-destination-checks of the storage aggregate relocation command set to true, background disk firmware update occurring on the destination node does not affect aggregate relocation.
