Active port
correct?
NO
YES
Verify that the active port is the one you intended by using the
following command:
# nwmgr -v -c lanxxx
where
xxx
is the failover group instance number.
If the active port is not the intended one and the intended port is listed
in the Connected Port(s) field, the intended port is connected to the
current active port. For priority-based failover groups, verify the port
priority or port cost for both ports with the following command:
# nwmgr -A port_pri -c lanxxx -S apa
where
xxx
is the port interface number.
For cost-based failover groups, verify the port cost for both ports with
the following command:
# nwmgr -A port_cost, port_pri -c lanxxx -S apa
If the active port priority is greater than the intended port priority,
modify the priority value for the intended port (making it greater than
the current active port) with the following command:
# nwmgr -s -A port_pri=value -c lanxxx -S apa
Wait 30 seconds for the change to take effect. Verify the active port
again.
If the active port cost is less than the intended port cost, modify the
cost value for the intended port (making it less than the current active
port) with the following command:
# nwmgr -s -A port_pri=value -A port_cost=value -c lanxxx
-S apa
Wait 30 seconds for the change to take effect. Verify the active port
again.
Save the current configuration with the following command:
# nwmgr -s -A all --fr cu --sa -S apa
Ready ports
match connected
ports?
NO
YES
Verify that the ready ports are identical to the connected ports by using
the following command:
# nwmgr -v -c lanxxx
where
xxx
is the failover group instance number.
If the ready ports are different from the connected ports, some ports
are disconnected from the current active port. If the current active port
is not the intended active port, do the following:
1.
Remove the port from the failover group with the following
command:
# nwmgr -d -A links=port -c lanxxx
Wait 30 to 60 seconds for the failover to occur. Then, verify the
ready ports and connected ports. If they are the same, the ready
ports are connected to the current active port.
2.
Add the deleted port to the failover group. For priority-based
failover groups, enter the following command:
# nwmgr -s -A links=port port_pri=value -c lanxxx
