HA command line interface (CLI) set

High Availability has the following commands available through the CLI under enable mode:

Table 1. HA command line interface set

Command

Description

failover mode primary

This command changes the Core mode to Primary. This has the same effect as having the system automatically failover when the Primary becomes unavailable. This command is not limited by any other command or Core state and can be re-executed, achieving the same results.

A system in Primary mode will not replicate with any other Core

failover mode secondary

This command changes the Core mode to Secondary. This has the same effect as making the same change through the System Manager Portal, but does not restart the replication scheduler. It is recommended to only use this command for upgrade or troubleshooting purposes. The System Manager Portal HA configuration version of this functionality should be used for normal HA operations.

failover sync <remote host address>

This command executes the Core replication process on demand. This command is identical to the Run Sync Now option in the System Manager Portal. This command is intended to replicate Core environments either after recovering from a failover or for troubleshooting purposes. The System Manager Portal HA configuration version of this functionality should be used for normal HA operations.

failover client-connection disable

This command prevents new device connections. This command is intended to prevent new connections while the system is going through maintenance.

failover client-connection enable

This command allows new device connections. This command is intended to reverse the disable client-connection command.
