Verifying LDAP status

Beginning in ONTAP 9.5, if LDAP is used by your storage virtual machines (SVMs), you must have an established LDAP connection to perform a nondisruptive upgrade. You should verify the LDAP connection before you begin the upgrade.

1. Check the LDAP status: ldap check -vserver vserver_name
2. If the LDAP status is down, modify it: ldap client modify -client-config LDAP_client -ldap-servers ip_address
3. Verify that the LDAP status is up: ldap check -vserver vserver_name
