I have a 5508 WLC pair setup in HA SSO mode and the primary controller keeps rebooting, while secondary is up and running.
We had to take power off the primary, so we first made switchover by issuing redundancy force-switchover. Then powered primary off and after putting power back it just gets up and then reboots.
Found the Peer. Starting Role Determination...
Restarting system ..
Does anyone have any idea how to resolve the situation?
Here is whole story from CLI.
