Beginning in ONTAP 9.14.1, by default, ONTAP supports the ability of NVMe/FC hosts to identify virtual machines by a unique identifier and for NVMe/FC hosts to monitor virtual machine resource utilization. This enhances host-side reporting and troubleshooting.
You can use the bootarg to disable this functionality.
Step
-
Disable the virtual machine identifier:
bootargs set fct_sli_appid_off <port>, <port>
The following example disables the VMID on port 0g and port 0i.
bootargs set fct_sli_appid_off 0g,0i fct_sli_appid_off == 0g,0i
