Viewing job details
The Fabric Manager on-boarding is initiated when a Fabric Manager failover occurs in the IOM cluster. When a new Fabric
Manager is discovered, OME - Modular initiates the on-boarding process to reestablish communication with the IOM cluster.
In certain scenarios, multiple switchovers may occur within a short timespan resulting in failure of the tasks that are already
in-progress. Only the last task is completed successfully. Following are the scenarios when multiple switchovers could occur:
● MM reset
● MM upgrade or switchover
● Inter-chassis link online insertion removal
● MM online insertion removal
● IOM Master upgrade
● IOM Master reset
● Fab-D congestions—Reasons for the congestion include downloading huge files that cause the FAB-D to drop other traffic
