- Getting help
A scale-out file system may be in offline state after the execution of Storage> fencing off/on command
The Storage> fencing off/on command is executed to configure fencing on a Veritas Access cluster. The operation involves restarting of services. After this operation, you may find that some of the scale-out file systems fail to come online on their own. Their state is reported as offline when you run the Storage fs> list command.
Workaround:
The cluster can recover from this state. Use the Support> service autofix command to fix the file systems that are offline. This command clears all the faults and brings the file systems online.
