I've got two ClusterXL pairs managed from a single SmartCenter. One of the pairs is causing me some pain. Looking at "Control" messages in the logs, I see the secondary firewall (gcc1fw2) claiming that the member 1 is down, so it comes up, then it goes back to standby. I presume, although it doesn't log it, it goes back to standby when it realizes that member 1 is still up.
Notice that member 1 is never claiming to be down. Nor does it claim that member 2 has disappeared. Just member 2 does this. My other cluster, which is almost identical, doesn't display this behavior. Anyone have some suggestions for how to debug this? I've checked the obvious, that the link between two (crossover cable) is set to the correct duplex on both ends and other link-layer problems. We really haven't noticed this situation create any performance or connectivity issues, but I need to clear this up so I can get only real failure notifications into our NMS.
