Verify Failover

To test that your HA configuration works properly trigger a manual failover and verify that the devices transition

states successfully.

Verify Failover

Step 1 Suspend the active device. Click the Suspend local device link on the Device > High

Availability > Operational Commands

tab.

Step 2 Verify that the passive device has taken

over as active.

On the

Dashboard, verify that the state of the passive device changes

active in the High Availability widget.

Step 3 Restore the suspended device to a

functional state. Wait for a couple

minutes, and then verify that preemption

has occurred, if preemptive is enabled.

1. On the device you previously suspended, select the

Make local

device functional

link on the Device > High Availability >

Operational Commands

tab.

2. In the

High Availability widget on the Dashboard, confirm that

the device has taken over as the active device and that the peer

is now in a passive state.
