Adding Sync-Only device group to existing Active/Standby pairs
Hi,
We're hoping to Sync some APM policies across 2 separate pairs of Active/Standby devices. The config guides say you're supposed to create the Sync-Only device groups before creating the Sync-Failover group.
However we have existing A/S pairs already in production and it would be fairly painful to have to break the existing clusters to create the Sync-Only group for APM. Is there any way around this - some other method to add a Sync-Only group to the existing clusters without having to break the sync-failover group?
thanks,
Stuart
For reference, this is the entry in the manual regarding Sync-Only group creation:
Important: Sync-Only groups must be configured before you pair Active-Standby devices. To add an Active-Standby device pair to a Sync-Only device group, first you must reset the trust between the devices. Next, you must remove the devices from the Sync-Failover device group. Next, you must add both devices to a Sync-Only device group. Finally, add the devices as an Active-Standby pair to the Sync-Failover group.
