NetworkATC Stuck on Validating

After migrating our three-node Azure Stack HCI cluster to intent-based networking with network ATC, the configuration status for some of the intents remains in the "Validating" status.  I have two intents: One management and compute.  One storage.  I'm not sure how to troubleshoot why the configuration status doesn't progress to "Success" status.  Fortunately, the cluster is operating normally, but I fear something must be wrong.  A cluster validation test doesn't indicate any issues.  All nodes are running 10.0.25398

 

Get-NetIntentStatus | select IntentName, Host, ConfigurationStatus, ProvisioningStatus | ft

IntentName Host ConfigurationStatus ProvisioningStatus
---------- ---- ------------------- ------------------
storage dun-s-hci1 Success Completed
storage dun-s-hci2 Success Completed
storage dun-s-hci3 Success Completed
management_compute dun-s-hci1 Validating
management_compute dun-s-hci2 Validating
management_compute dun-s-hci3 Validating

  • I find the command for fixing this issue:

    Update-NetworkATC -DriftTimerInMinutes 15 -ConfigurationChangeInSeconds 300

    It works in my upgraded 23H2 setup :) 

  • How about the error parameter, is that empty or not? We may have a similar issue on an upgraded stack. 
    Both storage and compute_management intents switch between completed and validating. 

    I have seen the failed more that gets repeated multiple times, and that was because the symmetry parameters for the compute_management intent was blank. It got fixed by removing the intent and recreate from start.

    MattI2290 You've probably already resolved your issue but I use the Set-NetIntentRetryState command whenever any of the Intents go into a weird state.
