Manual failover question

What is the process of manually trigger a failover in a cluser XL of two 7000 appliances?

I recall there was a way by increasing priority of the standby unit but don't have the detail on how to do it.

We are using SmartConsole 81.10.

 

Thanks

Most common method is via CLI using: "clusterXL_admin down|up"

Refer also sk55081.

Changing the priority in smartconsole is a less common method.
