Not all devices sync

I see the status "Not all devices sync" on one on version 11.5 LTM pair. I believe the in version 11 and above the devices are auto sync. I ran a command - load /sys config then this started coming. how to correct that or is it the reason of not sync?

  • Can you please share the error during sync(NTP, VLAN, etc).

    As far as I understand the timestamp of the binary will be used to verify the latest config change. The timestamp of the binary file should be updated, if you run a config load from your text based config on both units:

                tmsh load sys config
    

    This will be followed by config sync:

                tmsh run cm config-sync to-group device-group-failover
    

    Monitor the related log on both units:

                tail -f /var/log/ltm
    

    To be on the safe side I recommend to make a config backup on both units first:

            tmsh save sys ucs backup_unit_name
    
  • Time is critical so if you do not have NTP setup strongly recommend this is done.

     

    Ensure 'ConfigSync' addresses are configured correctly (Web GUI: Device Management, Devices, (Self). Device Connectivity, Config Sync) (TMSH: list cm device configsync-ip) Check you can ping/connect between the LTMs on via the configsync ip addresses.

     

    If all ok check the ltm log while forcing a sync, you may need to reset the trust between the LTMs or even re-create the Device Group.
