If you upgraded volumes to ONTAP 9.18.1 and later, ONTAP ARP/AI automatic enablement might have been set for your volumes after a brief grace period (12 hours). It's recommended that you disable this automatic enablement setting on volumes upgraded to ONTAP 9.18.1 and later before reverting to ONTAP 9.17.1 or earlier.

Steps

  1. Determine if the automatic enablement option has been activated on volumes that have been upgraded to ONTAP 9.18.1 or later:
