Device Config synchronization Failure

Hi, Please I need to synchronize two Big-IP devices. I have configured them to be in the same device-group and they can see eachother. However, synchronization fails from either of them. Initially, I synchronized the most recent device configured to the group and then attempted to pull the config from the group...Failed. Please help!!!

  • Hi Sadorect, Need some more information related to this issue:

     

    1)Which version of BIGIP are you using?

     

    2)Are you able to reach the peer device from either of them?

     

    3) What is the error message you get when you try to synchronise?

     

    Try running below commands : ping peer telnet peer 443

     

    Verify that the following daemons are running on both systems: mcpd cssd httpd bigdbd*

     

    The ConfigSync user web account and password are used for ConfigSync authentication, and should be the same on both units. b db Configsync.Username show b db Configsync.password show

     

  • befor sync make sure that * both nodes have same release with same HF * each node can reach the other one * vlans are same in both nodes * vlan-groups are same in both nodes * trunks are same in both nodes * ip address are created properly in both nodes
