Does LTM VE Trial Edition 10.1.0 support HA
Hi,
I am trying to trial HA on a pair of LTM Virtual Editions (from f5.com/trial) and there is conflicting info on whether HA is supported. The README says no, but a "b version" on the trial shows differently:
Kernel:
Linux 2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.1.0.f5app
Package:
BIG-IP Version 10.1.0 3341.1084
Final Edition
Enabled Features:
<...>
Active Active
Failover
<...>
I am able to set up HA (network failover, VA's don't have serial failover) and config sync is working, but when I tell the active unit to fail over, it goes into standby mode, but the stand by unit wont go active.
I can see the Network heartbeat traffic on both nodes with a TCPDUMP (port 1026) but the failover just wont work...
I am trying to test the VA's ability to do Network Mirroring for Stateful TCP failover and I jsut can't seem to get it working...
Can anyone advise if they have managed to get this working and whether it will work with the Trial editions?
Thank you in advance
