Standby Fwsm Stuck in sync after reload

[amol1976]

Hi,

We have a setup of FWSMs configured in single mode in 6509 chassis. Both 6509 are configured in VSS.

Recently I have upgraded the firmwre from 4.0(3) to 4.1(3).....before upgradation config sync was not having any problem.

After upgradation...If any one of the FWSM reload..while coming up it gets stuck in config sync and no command we can run on any of the unit and get the error as..

Configuration update in progress by another process....

Also on stannby fwsm no running-config displays.

If we used # failover suspend-config on primary and then reloads the standby fwsm...standby boots up with startup config and when  # no failover suspend-config command runs on active fwsm..the sync started and completing succssfully within 15 sec..

Also failover works well..with #no failover active..

I have checked the bug list..but nothing matches...

Kindly suggest...

Does anyone having Idea?

I couldn't find any known bugs. It sounds like the config replication is failing. If you can reproduce the problem, then it would be good to see where in the process the config sync fails. I would run 'debug fover sync' and see if that tells me where during the config replication the problem occurs.

This may be a difficult case to troubleshoot. If you continue to have difficulties, you should open a case with the TAC.

Thanks,

Brendan
