Hi Friend, This scenario i came across while doing takeover and giveback process of NetApp Cluster nodes.
First we have rebooted one node and giveback process completed successfully, however when we do the same on another node, Node came back normally however services and resources are not giveback to same node.
ARKIT-NA::*> storage failover show-giveback
Partner
Node Aggregate Giveback Status
-------------- ----------------- ---------------------------------------------
ARKIT-NA01
CFO Aggregates Done
aggr1_SATA_SNY_NA02
Failed: Operation was vetoed by lock_manager. Check the event log
ARKIT-NA02
No aggregates to give back
Using below command we are going to give back the resources to node2
ARKIT-NA::*> storage failover giveback -ofnode ARKIT-NA02 -override-vetoes true
Warning: Initiating a giveback with vetoes overridden will result in giveback proceeding even if the node detects outstanding issues that
would make a giveback dangerous or disruptive. Do you want to continue? {y|n}: y
Info: Run the storage failover show-giveback command to check giveback status.
After give back process initiated
ARKIT-NA::*> storage failover show-giveback

That's about this post, if your node is struck with giveback process use above command to giveback without vetoed.
