Hi Danny

We have had some issues with HA mode in the past running 7.4.110. ping to
the gateway would routinely fail causing a failover, at one point both the
primary and secondary failed at once causing an outage. At this point i
disabled HA mode and waited for new software. When 7.6 came around I tried
to upgrade. I had all kinds of issues with 7.6 unrelated to HA mode and
didn't get to run it long enough to even try, having to revert to 7.4.121.
I have recently completed upgrading all of them to 8.0.110 and enabling HA
mode and this time things have worked out much better. We have since
noticed a failed gateway ping on one of our HA pairs, but the new 8.0 logic
means that does not cause a failover. We have some strange issues with the
6500 VSS at the moment so that could relate.

If the issues we've seen up to now have been caused by this VSS issue,
8.0.110 seems to have been good so far, still have an ongoing TAC case so
we'll see what happens.
