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
