PGW switchover configuration

[dragos.stroescu]

I am having problems getting two PGW's, master and slave, into sync, to create a redundant MGC.

The master operates correctly with all the gateways but I am not able to synchronize the master and the standby.

I have applied all changes into XEfgParms.dat to both machines but as soon as the standby gets up, the master gets OOS in minutes (rtrv-ne = platform state->OOS).

I just need some info about the standby machine like:

- is there any configuration that should be applied to standby before syncing it to master?

- is that something ELSE that should be done OTHER than making the machines aware of redundancy by configuring the appropriate parameters into XEfgParms.dat?

I will appreciate a feedback!

Attached is a doc that worked in the lab. I am not sure what release are u running but these parameters were tested in older releases.

What else to check?

1.Check the pom.datasync at startup

If the pom.datasync=true doesn't work then try setting it to false.

If nothing works.. then logs could shed some more light on this issue.

Thanks for the doc.

I was already reading similar document on pom.datasync...

Hope I will find the issue.

Thanks
