I have a pair of active/standby ASA5515-X.
I have ASA CX modules in both.
The ASA CX modules have software bugs and do not perform. They frequently hang and crash. At the moment the ASA CX module in the Standby ASA has an issue which is causing the "show failover" output to report the Standby ASA is in a failed state.
I want to shut both ASA CX down because we don't use them. I'm waiting for licenses and software to upgrade them to FirePower services.
In the meantime, how can I unload the ASA CX or simply shut them down without triggering the ASA Failover to be "failed"?

Hi,
If you are running version 9.3.1 or above then you could use the below command to disable monitoring :
no monitor-interface { if_name | service-module }”
Or else you could disable module on both the devices with ' sw-module module cx shutdown'. This would bring both the devices in same health status and bring devices out of failed state.

Thanks for the helpful info!
However, I needed to reboot my standby ASA for it to go "Secondary - Standby Ready" because it kept saying failed, even after following both of your points.
Thanks
