Active MDS doesn't need to synchronize with them self. Only the backup Server need to synchronize.

Thanks Roman for reply. So it means primary MDS having sync status as NR is fine and there is no issue with it?

Further, why 1 domain says not synced but in smart dashboard high availability it says synchronized.

Thanks

Yes there is no issue with NR Status.

One domain isn't synced - same here on my MDS. After policy installation the domain gets synchronized
