NS0-158 · Question #66
The network interface show command output lists the value of "false" under the "Is Home" column. False signifies the LIF __________. (choose all that apply)
The correct answer is B. has failed over D. has been migrated. A 'false' value in the 'Is Home' column for a Logical Interface (LIF) indicates that the LIF is not currently operating on its home port or node, which happens following a failover or a manual migration.

Why each option
A 'false' value in the 'Is Home' column for a Logical Interface (LIF) indicates that the LIF is not currently operating on its home port or node, which happens following a failover or a manual migration.
The 'Is Home' status indicates where the LIF is running relative to its home configuration, not whether the LIF is connected to the network or not.
If a LIF has failed over from its primary or home node to another node in the cluster due to an outage, load balancing, or administrative action, it will be running on a non-home port, causing its 'Is Home' status to be false.
An administratively disabled LIF can still be on its home port; the 'Is Home' status specifically relates to its location, not its operational state.
When a LIF has been manually migrated from its configured home port or node to a different port or node within the cluster, its current location is no longer its home, thus the 'Is Home' column will display false.
While migration causes 'Is Home' to become false, the status reflects the current state (has been migrated), not an ongoing operation ('currently being migrated').
