cloneVol reports that aggregate does not exist

Contributors NetAppZacharyWambold

For clustered Data ONTAP, the aggregate must be assigned to the storage virtual machine (SVM) for cloning purposes. If not, the cloneVol action might return an error.

  • Issue

    The cloneVol action returns an error similar to following example:

    ERROR: com.netapp.snapcreator.storage.executor.ZapiExecutorException: netapp.manage.NaAPIFailedException: Aggregate [aggregate name] does not exist (errno=14420)
  • Cause

    The aggregate was not assigned to the SVM for cloning purposes.

  • Corrective action

    Assign the aggregate to the SVM for cloning purposes: vserver modify -vserver [vserver_name] -aggr-list [aggregate_name]
