vPC failover

GSuarez0514_2
Level 1
Level 1

We have 2 nexus 5548UP running Layer 2.  I have setup vPC between both nexus switches and have a few questions on how vPC failover works.  Below is partial snippets of what I have configured for vPC,etc. During testing, I reload nx-1 and what I am seeing is that the vPC peer-link goes down as expected but all vpc port-channels are in a failed state on nx-2 until nx-1 is back online once vPC is formed and functioning everything looks good. I then reload nx-2 and the vPC port-channels go into fail state, etc. Am I missing something in my configuration?

I am running 5.1.3.N1.1.  I just upgraded to the .1a NX-OS and this fixed it.  Thank you for your support.
