The system should still report that it's in standby, but if you look at "tmsh show sys ha-status" if you have it set to require more blades than it has it should report a failure. Generally the system's actual status will be:

 

  • Active - taking traffic
  • Standby - not taking traffic, but otherwise functional (can connect to self-IPs, for instance)
  • Offline - generally manually forced to an offline state, or configuration load failed
  • Inactive - Not yet fully up

If you are in failsafe, I would expect the box to remain in standby, but show the failure in ha-status.
