Can you provide your configuration?

It looks like you may be monitoring the SFR/IPS module as part of the failover, which has failed on the primary firewall. It is in recover mode.

If you provide the output of 

Show run all monitor-interface

If you see the module as being monitored, just negate it with the no command until you figure out what is wrong with the module. This will at least get your failover working. 

just to add what @GRANT3779  said.

 

he is right follow his instruction. moreover, it seems your SFR could be problemetic. might you need to re-image this module. however, recover should come in to state as UP/UP. otherwise, do some test no sucess than reimage this.

please do not forget to rate.

We not using IPS module. Both firewalls is up. but failover not happened where is primary down.
