ASA failover question

[Colin Higgins]

I noticed that one of my ASA 5545X failover pairs has the secondary unit listed as active

show failover

failover on

failover unit Secondary

 This host: Secondary - Active

If I type

no failover active

will that set things right (make the primary unit in the inactive state active again)?

[Marvin Rhoads]

Yes - as long as the Primary unit is currently in "Standby Ready" status, typing the above command on the Secondary - Active unit will cause a failover event and change the Primary unit to Active state.
