Check for Device Peer

Hi,

 

 

Do anyone know how to check and see if a device has a peer or not?

 

 

Thanks,

 

  • Hi Joe,

     

     

    You can check the failover.isredundant DB key:

     

     

    tmsh list sys db failover.isredundant

     

     

    or in iControl: https://devcentral.f5.com/Default.aspx?tabid=63&articleType=ArticleView&articleId=196

  • Ok. Thanks that helped.

     

     

    Say that the device is part of a redundant pair but there is no actual pair there. The device is just set up to have a redundant pair.

     

     

    Would their be a way to check to see if that peer is there or not?
  • I had thought about using the get_list() from iSessionPeerDiscovery and I was thinking that if it returned no list then that means there is no peer there even though the device is set up as a redundant pair.

     

     

    What do you think?
