Solved: Re: R82 - lab with ElasticXL

Hello all !

I try to play with R82 ElasticXL lab in vmware env, but I'm stuck in a strange situation...

I read the admin doc, giving me the same way that process writed by @HeikoAnkenbrand:
Solved: R82 – Install ElasticXL Cluster - Check Point CheckMates

Any advice ?

Thanks a lot to @ShaiF for this quick fix !

For everyone: we sort out of the issue by disabling promiscuous mode on the sync vlan !

Its exact same link I followed as well, but since Israel folks told me that eve-nbg is not supported, I think thats totally fair, as I dont like to waste time on unsupported platforms. Im sure vmware should be though, but maybe someone from CP can verify.

Just for context, what does this tab look like for you?

K, I sort of figured that was the case. Does it help if you reboot that member?

Of course I try 😁
But still the same issue...

Trying to add a second site give me the same issue.
With or without JHF13 give me the same issue...

The strange things is that smo auto-cloning is working well for exemple, really strange situation (and I have already deploy somes maestro, so it's not suppose to be totaly new for me 🙂

Lets see what CP folks say...sorry mate, I got nothing else 😂

Hi,

You need to debug your Sync network.
Please share what's working from SMO

1. ping other member

2. move other member using m command

3. g_all echo 1 (do you see output from all members)

in addition check permission on your vSwitches and make sure promiscuous mode on reject

Make sure to compare the mac address of eth1-Sync and see on VM it is connected to your sync network on both members

Regards,

Shai

Hi,

For information, my SYNC network is a local VLAN on my ESX host, shared only with this 2 SGMs.

1/ yes ping is working on sync (ping ok between 192.0.2.1 and 192.0.2.2)

2/ not working:
[Expert@ADE-CHKP-R82EA-SMO-s01-01:0]# m 1_02
IP address for member 1_02 is unavailable

3/ g_all is executed only on one member

Thanks for your help here,
Arthur

ShaiF

please ack promiscuous mode is enabled on Sync vSwitches. and confirm the mac address on eth1-Sync correlate with the mac on the network adapter connected to your sync network on both members

Arthur_DENIS1

Yes I confirmed: promiscuous mode is enabled in Sync vlan, and mac address are correlated on both member

in addition - we can see traffic between members over eth1-Sync:
[Expert@ADE-CHKP-R82EA-SMO-s01-02:0]# tcpdump -nni eth1-Sync host 192.0.2.1
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
