We just purchased two asa firewall to be setup in an active/active configuration. But when im doing my initial configuration, the failover group command is somewhat missing
ASA1(config)# failover ?
configure mode commands/options:
interface Configure the IP address to be used for failover and/or
stateful update information
interface-policy Set the policy for failover due to interface failures
ipsec Configure the use of IPSec tunnel for failover
key Configure the failover shared secret or key
lan Specify the unit as primary or secondary or configure the
interface and vlan to be used for failover communication
link Configure the interface and vlan to be used as a link for
stateful update information
mac Specify the virtual mac address for a physical interface
polltime Configure failover poll interval
replication Enable HTTP (port 80) connection replication
timeout Specify the failover reconnect timeout value for
asymmetrically routed sessions
<cr>
exec mode commands/options:
active Make this system to be the active unit of the failover pair
exec Execute command on the designated unit
reload-standby Force standby unit to reboot
reset Force a unit or failover group to an unfailed state

Have you already configured failover? Are you in the system context?

Thanks Collin.
Already figured it out. I was still in single mode
I'll continue the configuration and if I come across any issue, i'll post it here.
Wish me luck
