Symptoms

MNHA Node offline

SRG1 Ineligible

HW error

Solution

The MNHA node would go offline and show an Hardware error if the below alarm is present.  This alarm is generated when the number of fabric cards is less that the minimum requirements, thereby putting both the MNHA nodes into offline state.
