system ha lservice set

system ha lservice

Use this command to configure HA primary unit local services monitoring. Configure local service

monitoring so that an active-passive HA primary unit monitors its own network interfaces and hard

drives. You must configure how long in seconds to wait between checks of the interfaces or hard

drives and how many times the check fails before a failover occurs.

Network interface monitoring monitors all active network interfaces. Network interfaces with their HA

interface configuration set to ignore this interface are not monitored. For information about HA

interface configuration, see “set system ha takeover” on page 330.

If the primary unit detects an interface failure (for example, if the network cable is disconnected from a

monitored interface) or if the primary unit detects a hard drive failure, the primary unit HA effective

operating mode changes to off.

If the primary unit effective operating mode changes to off, the primary unit no longer responds to HA

heartbeat packets sent by the backup unit. The backup unit assumes that the primary unit has failed

and becomes the new primary unit.

Syntax

set system ha lservice {ports | hd} <check_time_integer>

<retries_integer>

Example

Enter the following command to set primary unit interface monitoring to check the interfaces every 30

seconds and to change the primary unit effective operating mode to off if interface monitoring fails 10

consecutive checks.

set system ha lservice pprts 30 10
