Hi everyone,
I have a pair of PIX 515 with IOS v5.2(5). Both the primary and the standby
failover very frequently.
a) When failover occur, the failed one reboots automatically and comes
backup frozen. I have to manually reboot it again to make it healthy; so
the active one has something to failover to. Otherwise, the network will go
down.
b) The time for any of them to fail range from 15 minutes to 10 hours.
c) Both of them still fail when them run solely
This is what I have tried so far.
1. Upgrade the IOS from an older one to v5.2(5)
2. Changed the failover cable
3. Changed the ethernet cables
4. I replaced the original primary. When I turned it on, there was no
traffic flow.
5. There was not any changes on the network itself that I know of.
6. I typed: 'debug fover fail' and 'debug fover switch', but I didn't see
any errors.
7. I just recently turned logging on a day ago(I inherited this network),
but I don't currently have log analyzer. Let me know if you know of a good
one.

8. In case you asked, I am try to strainghten out support issue with Cisco.
Currently, Cisco thinks that our maintenance expired. We purchase the
equipments less than a year ago.
If you any kind soles can shed some lights on this issue, I will greatly
appreciate it.
Larry
