Cannot access NetApp 7-mode admin shares etc$
1 like449 views
The document summarizes an issue where one node of an HA pair could access the c$ or etc$ shares but the partner node could not. The cause was determined to be a registry setting on the filer's management interface that blocks data traffic, which was turned on for one node but off for the other. The solution is to set this option to 'off' on both nodes to allow access to the shares from either node.
![Unable to access NetApp 7-mode Filer's c$ or etc$, one of the HA Pair has an access to c$ or
etc$ but the partner cannot.
Cause: This issue is caused due to FILER's registry setting – Block data traffic on Mgmt.
Interface [e0M] is set to ‘ON’. Other node of the HA Pair has this switch turned off.
Note: Initial investigation revealed no issues with Network or the Firewall.
Solution:
1. Make sure this option is set to 'off':
Filer-7-mode>options interface.blocked.mgmt_data_traffic
interface.blocked.mgmt_data_traffic off
2. Now the share should be accessible:
