V5.0.4 HA Group1: Running configuration not synchronized after retries

ktm530russ — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 16:29:51 GMT

This message appears (email, and SNMP trap) pretty much anytime I run a "commit" on the box. It appears cosmetic, as the GUI on both boxes show them being in synch. (possible latency/delay issues during synchsynch causing this mis-fire?)

I noted this was an issue in the 3.x version of code, did they somehow "unfix" this bug? Anyone else experiencing this error message?

I did not see this with 5.0.4 but if your issue is like the following , you can try to upgrade 5.0.5 or open a case.

Automatic configuration synchronization was not occurring between peers in an HA configuration after a policy change. Status of the synchronization was not correct, the device that the configuration change was made on showed sync was complete, but the peer device showed it was in progress.

Thanks for the quick response and suggestions. Ours is somewhat similar, but appears cosmetic. The device we did the 'commit' on will still be showing "synching to peer" when we get the error message. This will change to "Synchronized" on both devices after a short while. More of an irritant than an issue at this point, but wanted to know if this is just on our installation, or if it is a version issue...

what's the mgmtsrvr and/or devsrvr resources show when the logs generate? when you perform another sync or see another sync pending, try to retrieve the aformentioned as follows:

admin@Phoenix-VM-Lab143> show system resources | match mgmt

580 20 0 442m 266m 8052 S 0 6.7 5:19.64 mgmtsrvr

admin@Phoenix-VM-Lab143> show system resources | match devsrvr

2288 20 0 221m 74m 12m S 0 1.9 4:01.07 devsrvr

You can also attempt to tail and collect the ha_agent.logs when the issue takes place

admin@Phoenix-VM-Lab143> tail follow yes mp-log ha_agent.log

It would behoove us to have more data so opening a support case would likely yield a more expeditious response.

Thank you.. I will try to do this tomorrow (Tried capturing this information earlier with 2 separate commits, with no error, then did not try, and had the error pop up... That has been my luck today!) It still looks like a cosmetic or timing issue on the sync.

If I am able to get the detail, I will open a case and send this up..

If it is cosmetic, we can enable a php debug and grab UI I/O as well as attempt replication.

I am holding off on starting a support case on this, as I have one open already, and will be starting another today (first for DataPlane 100% CPU utilization, slowly getting resolved, second for Custom Application signature Pattern Matching issue, pattern not getting any "hits" on the Security Rule).

It took me half a dozen "commit" to have the issue occur again (never happens when you want it to). I was running the "log tail", and below is a snip of the log.

It appears that there IS an error, and eventually times out trying to sync, but then starts over and succeeds:

Tech Support had my change the Heartbeat Interval to 2000ms from 1000ms, but that did not make any difference.

We upgraded to 5.0.5, and have not had the issue since. I cannot say if it was a bug or not, but the upgrade is what seemed to fix our issue.
