Hello!
we have two 3355 7.4 MSE appliance in different locations.
They are in the same VLAN (L2 domain).
MSE1 is primary, MSE2 secondary.
MSE1 and MSE2 can ping each other, but can't join in HA pair. MSE can also ping Virtual IP address. But, heartbeats are down.
after trying to add MSE2 to MSE1 from Prime GUI
(Services > Mobility Services Engines> System > Services High Availability > Current High Availability Status) it is ssen:
"Initial setup of high availability configuration has failed. Lost heartbeats with the Secondary. Will retry."
information from MSE2
[root@MSE2 ~]# /etc/init.d/msed status
STATUS:
Health Monitor is running
MSE services are down. This is a secondary server. Services will not be started
unless -
* This secondary is paired with a primary and the primary is up
and synchronized with this secondary
OR
* Associated primary server is down and this server is failing o
ver for it
[root@MSE2 ~]# gethainfo

For Primary and secondary unit , enable this feature
configureCiscoJ.sh enable
For Primary and secondary unit , break HA
breakHAsetup.sh
from the prime infrastructure
Delete Primary MSE and delete secondary HA configuration
then add primary using VIP , after that add the secondary.
