/cfg/l3/ha/service
Service HA Menu
In Service HA mode, both Alteon platforms are active. Some VIPs are active on one Alteon, while others are active on the second Alteon. A single service group (VIP or group of VIPs and floating IP addresses) can fail to the other device. When failover occurs, the Alteon that becomes active sends Gratuitous ARP messages to the non-physical IP addresses (VIPs, PIPs, and floating IP addresses) associated with the Alteon that becomes inactive.

Command Syntax and Usage
trigger
 
Displays the Failover trigger menu. To view this menu, see /cfg/l3/ha/service/trigger Failover Trigger Menu.
failback onfailure | always
 
Defines the Alteon failback mode.
Values:
*onfailure — Failback does not occur if all tracked resources are available on the active Alteon.
*always — Failback to the Alteon with preferred state set to active occurs when that Alteon becomes available.
Default: onfailure
pref active|standby
 
Defines the Alteon preferred initial state.
The preferred initial state is relevant and configurable only when the failback mode is always.
The preferred initial state should be active for one of the Alteons in an HA pair, and standby for the other.
If both Alteon platforms have the same preferred initial state, the system arbitrarily selects the active Alteon.
Values:
*active
*standby
Default: standby
addif
 
Sets an IP interface for communication between the Alteon platforms in the HA pair.
You must set a peer IP address for each interface.
remif
 
Removes an IP interface from communication between the Alteon platforms in the HA pair.
def
 
Defines the list of IP interfaces available for communication between the Alteon platforms in the HA pair.
addfip
 
Adds a floating IP address to the service group.
The floating IP addresses available are those already defined at /cfg/l3/ha/floatip. For more information, see /cfg/l3/ha/floatip Floating IP ID Menu.
remfip
 
Removes a floating IP address from the service group.
addvip
 
Adds a virtual IP address to the service group.
The virtual IP addresses available are those already defined at /cfg/slb/virt.
remvip
 
Removes a virtual IP address from the service group.
adver
 
Sets the length of time, in seconds, between Alteon primary advertisements.
delete
 
Deletes a high availability service group.
ena
 
Enables a high availability service group.
dis
 
Disables a high availability service group.
cur
