How is choosen the master or primary slot of the cluster?
Hi there,
I'd like to know how the cluster master slot is choosen? Is there any rule or algorithm to choose the primary slot on boot?
I'm wondering why my Viprion has decided this configuration after booting:
On the vCMP host:
-----------------------------------------
Sys::Cluster: default
-----------------------------------------
Address 192.168.16.32/21
Availability available
State enabled
Reason Cluster Enabled
Primary Slot ID 1
Primary Selection Time 11/27/14 09:03:31
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sys::Cluster Members
| ID Address Availability State Licensed HA Clusterd Reason
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 1 192.168.16.33 available enabled true active running Run
| 2 192.168.16.34 available enabled true active running Run
| 3 :: unknown disabled false unknown shutdown Slot powered off or empty, manually disabled
| 4 :: unknown disabled false unknown shutdown Slot powered off or empty, manually disabled
On the guest:
-----------------------------------------
Sys::Cluster: default
-----------------------------------------
Address 192.168.16.55/21
Availability available
State enabled
Reason Cluster Enabled
Primary Slot ID 2
Primary Selection Time 11/27/14 09:06:27
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sys::Cluster Members
| ID Address Availability State Licensed HA Clusterd Reason
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 1 :: available enabled true active running Run
| 2 :: available enabled true active running Run
| 3 :: unknown enabled false unknown shutdown Slot powered off or empty
| 4 :: unknown enabled false unknown shutdown Slot powered off or empty
I'd expect to see the guest active on slot 1 too, how is this?
It doesn't matter that the slot 1 is the active one for the host and slot 2 for the guest?
