After migrating Kemp HA to new hypervisor environment, master/master scenario
Information
Summary: |
Migrated LoadMasters to a new VMWare environment and each node in the pair sees itself as the active node and the other as unreachable (although both are accessible). |
Environment: |
Product: Loadmaster Version: Any Platform: Virtual Application: N/A |
Question/Problem Description: |
|
Steps to Reproduce: | |
Error Message: | |
Defect Number: | |
Enhancement Number: | |
Cause: |
Environment did not have the VMware requirements in place with regards to virtual switch settings to allow proper HA operation. |
Resolution: |
Configure the VMware distributed switch settings to allow forged transmits and mac address changes under security settings are properly configured on new environment. Ensure that MAC Address Changes and Forged Transmits are both selected. When they have been selected, reboot one of the LoadMasters. The units should now be able to communicate properly. The correct state should now appear in the HA status icons.
