I'm using the HA Self IP's and VLAN's for that and HA VLAN is associated with 1.4 on both Untagged. that is fine. you may run "tail -f /var/log/ltm" on both units while performing configsync to see if there is any error log.

Thank you again, I setup the device as the config leader and also tried to do a forced sync from the GUI no use. I seem to not have the tail command available to me.

Also when I remove the Management IP from the "System --> High Availability --> Device connectivity --> Failover" and just leave the HA VLAN in there that is associated with 1.4 port (1.4 to 1.4) my failover stops working too.
