  • 1.  how to break the secondary node from the cluster in a safe way

    Posted 07-12-2012 02:34

    hello

    there is a cluster pair

     

    jucao@srwd00jfw002> show chassis cluster status                                  
    Cluster ID: 1
    Node                  Priority          Status    Preempt  Manual failover

    Redundancy group: 0 , Failover count: 2
        node0                   129         secondary      no       no  
        node1                   128         primary        no       no  

    Redundancy group: 1 , Failover count: 6
        node0                   129         secondary      no       no  
        node1                   128         primary        no       no  

    I want to take the secondary node of this cluster  because I wanna configure somthing on this secondary node to test some issue

     

    is there any good way to break it in a safe way without affecting the current traffic

    Hi,

     

    Firstly, failover  all redundancy groups to node 1.

     

    user@srx> request chassis cluster failover redundancy-group 0 node 1

    user@srx> request chassis cluster failover redundancy-group 1 node 1

     

    Ensure Node 1 is handling all traffic first, then disable clustering on node 0.

     

    user@srx> set chassis cluster cluster-id 0 node 0 reboot

     

    Node 1 will be the primary on all RGs now and will be processing all traffic.  Keeping node 1 in the cluster will make it easier to join node 0 again in the future.

     

    If you disabled clustering on node 1, both will require a reboot upon rejoining.
