For systems that use the HA state value, the value must be consistent in all components in the HA pair. You can use the Maintenance mode ha-config command to verify and, if necessary, set the HA state.
The HA state is recorded in the hardware PROM in the chassis and in the controller module. It must be consistent across all components of the system, as shown in the following table:
If the system or systems are in a... | The HA state is recorded on these components... | The HA state on the components must be... |
---|---|---|
Stand-alone configuration (not in an HA pair) |
|
non-ha |
A single-chassis HA pair |
|
ha |
A dual-chassis HA pair |
|
ha |
Each single-chassis HA pair in a MetroCluster configuration |
|
mcc |
Each dual-chassis HA pair in a MetroCluster configuration |
|
mcc |
Use the following steps to verify the HA state is appropriate and, if not, to change it:
