Hi All,
I have had a pair of Quantum spark 1590s setup in a cluster for the past 2 months and within that time we have see two failovers from member 1 to 2.
When failing back to member 1 within a day or so it will fail to 2. The messages file is rotated and so I wasn't able to get to the messages file in time. but cphaprob shows:
[Expert@Gatekeeper1]# cphaprob show_failover
Last cluster failover event:
Transition to new ACTIVE: Member 1 -> Member 2
Reason: FULLSYNC PNOTE - Manually disabled sync
Event time: Wed Mar 30 22:17:17 2022

Time of counter reset: Wed Mar 30 22:17:22 2022 (reboot)
Cluster failover history (last 20 failovers since reboot/reset on Wed Mar 30 22:17:22 2022):

Searching for the reason for failover turns up this post from some years back: https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/General-Topics/Issue-on-the-sync-interface/td-p/30640
but I dont think that the interfaces are flapping as in that example and hoping that there is not a specific hardware issue with member1
I was just wondering if anyone what message specifically means.
The sync interfaces are plugged into a switch and not a direct cable connection in this instance.
Thanks for any info / tips/ advice
Regards
Dek
