In this scenario, the logical interfaces (LIFs) that serve block protocol do not failover automatically. Block access, such as Fibre Channel (FC) or iSCSI, relies on multipathing software or proper FC switch zoning to handle connectivity issues rather than failover mechanisms used by file access protocols. Thus, the LIFs for block traffic remain on their original ports and do not migrate as file traffic LIFs do.
A Site License provides the functionality where all nodes in the cluster are entitled to the licensed functionality without manual updates for each node. This type of license is not tied to a specific system serial number, and any new nodes added to the cluster will automatically inherit the licensed functionality.
