When using wafliron to repair WAFL inconsistencies on an aggregate, the aggregate becomes available after Phase 4 of the wafliron process is complete.
Phase 1: Initial scan to identify inconsistencies.
Phase 2: Corrects directory and inode structure issues.
Phase 3: Repairs blocks and metadata.
Phase 4: Completes final repairs and verification, after which the aggregate can be made available.
Phases of wafliron:
A. when the administrator manually onlines the aggregate:
The aggregate cannot be manually brought online until wafliron completes Phase 4.
B. when wafliron is started:
Starting wafliron does not make the aggregate available; repairs need to be completed first.
D. after the mounting phase of wafliron is complete:
WAFLiron does not have a specific "mounting phase." Mounting happens after Phase 4 completes.
Why Other Options Are Incorrect:
"NetApp WAFLiron Troubleshooting Guide" explains the availability of the aggregate after Phase 4.
NetApp Support documentation outlines the phases of wafliron and aggregate recovery.
