Faiover ports on cluster

[Sacmaugacon]

I have two CP15400 devices configured with 4 L3 ports to 4 different zones. Since I no longer need one of the zones, I have removed the physical port but kept the logical configuration intact.
Initially, CP_01 was active and CP_02 was passive. I first removed E1 from CP_02, then removed E1 from CP_01. The active-passive status on both devices remained unchanged.

In this case, I would like to ask: if I continue to use the two devices without removing E1, and one more port on CP_01 goes down, will failover occur to CP_02? And when that port comes back up, what will the status of the two devices be?

Thank you so much!
