multi virtual system could not be activated

kdd — Thu, 13 Mar 2014 23:27:00 GMT

Hi,

after i activated vsys i got messages that the backup device is suspended because of the different multi vsys config.

Management CPU of the activ device was about 30% and even after 20 minutes nothing happend. Then i did a reboot on the backup device.

It seems to be that everything is normal. but then i saw this on activ device:

and that on backup device:

and to make it a little bit more confusing:

this could be seen on both device ( activ / passiv vice versa)

Before i updated the PAN-OS to 6.0.1 from 5.0.11. Any ideas i would appreciate.

Thx Klaus

Hello Klaus,

Could you please check system logs, HA-agent. log, ms.log for detail information for this incident.

Thanks

Hello Hulk,

what i found is that:

repeating message in dp0-log

but overnight the yellow marked objects are gone.

I would activate multi vsys again but how long does it take and i want to be a little bit more convinced in doing this.

Cheers Klaus

Hello Kalus,

We see the above error message if the "multi virtual system capability" under tab > device> setup > management > general settings is not enabled on the passive device. You need same set of licenses on both devices in HA pair ,because when the devices switches over then you will not be able to get the same functionality on both of them.

Hi Jahnavi,

we have a HA pair and its working fine so far. So no problem with licence. . Is it right that the config will not be syncronized in this case and i have to do it seperately?

Hello,

Please take a look at page number 4 in below document.

Multi-vsys won't get synchronized and you need to enable manually on both devices and you need separate license for each device.

High Availability Synchronization
