ASA 5525-X HA problem

Hi,

I have one ASA5525-X using the 9.2(4) IOS. it's configured Active/Standby HA with success.

The problem ocurred when I rebooted the Active ASA to simulating a fail, after this time it's not detect the other ASA and both are active.

When it's boot up I can see "IPMI over lan not active" log message.

Anyone has this same problem?

Follow the configuration:

failover lan interface fover GigabitEthernet0/7

failover replication http
failover link fover GigabitEthernet0/7
failover interface ip fover 10.255.255.253 255.255.255.252 standby 10.255.255.254

Hi Luis,

- Are you able to ping Failover IP addresses?

- Could you please check by removing the failover key from both the ASA and enable the failover again with 'failover' key again and see if it comes up.

If that doesn't work then try removing the complete failover configuration from the unit which has been reloaded and past it again.

I could also see on defect opened for the same issue. Your version could also be affected as it has been seen on version 9.2.3 and your ASA is running on 9.2.4. It has been kept in a cosmetic category so it should not be having anything much to worry:

Hope it helps.
