Best Practice for Sync Between Primary and Failover

Hi Eray,

 

 

SYNCMODE_BASIC should be fine if you haven't changed routing or default profiles (or a couple of other not-normally-modified items like self-ip).

 

 

The message you're getting indicates that both systems have changes since the last sync, and rather than try to figure out who wins, it wants you to manually duplicate the changes between the two...

 

Last Change (Self) Wed Mar 12 06:59:48 PDT 2008

 

Last Change (Peer) Thu Mar 06 14:12:53 PST 2008

 

Last ConfigSync Tue Feb 19 14:10:05 PST 2008

 

 

 

 

Note that the last change for both systems is more recent than the last configsync, so the system doesn't want to sync and lose any of your changes.

 

 

The timeout is a little questionable... Can you traceroute from one to the other?

 

And you should try setting the timeout value - I forget the default, but I try to always set it to something so I know what I'm dealing with.

 

 

I hope that helps!

 

Don.
