Solution

Please follow the steps below to resolve the issue :

 

  • This could be due to CF space not being available on the particular node/FPC. Run the storage cleanup using the CLI :  request system storage cleanup  command to release the CF space on the particular node/FPC (which is node 1 in this example) :
In the case of VC :

> request session member 1
> request system storage cleanup

 

  • If the issue persists, try restarting the mgd process on both the members.
> start shell user root
% ps -auwx | grep mgd
% kill -9 <pid>

 

  • If restarting the mgd process doesn't resolve the issue, please try power-cycling the affected node/FPC.
