Volume move operation stuck when ONTAP primary is down

Use the following information if a volume move operation is stuck indefinitely in cutover deferred state when the primary site is down in a SnapMirror active sync relationship.

Issue:

A volume move operation is stuck indefinitely in cutover deferred state when the primary site is down in a SnapMirror active sync relationship.
When the primary site is down, the secondary site performs an automatic unplanned failover (AUFO). When a volume move operation is in progress when the AUFO is triggered the volume move becomes stuck.

Solution:

Abort the volume move instance that is stuck and restart the volume move operation.
