HA - Sync Failed..
Hi Guys,
I have bought the Lab license and have two versions of 12.1 running on ESXI servers. I have issue though, against the F5 best practices, im wanting to cluster both these F5's, one in each DC.
Each has an Internal, External, Mgmt and HA interface. For the HA Self IP's they are below.
F5-1 - HA self IP 172.16.73.3/29 F5-2 - HA self IP 172.16.73.11/29
I have a static route on each F5 routing the HA network of the other F5 to the local HA gateway - this gateway is an ASA and has 2 paths to the other DC and handles failover routing.
I go to Device Trust > Peer List > Add Peer - it successfully finds the other F5 using the HA IP's above, but when i try create a sync failover group and add both devices - when press sync device to group it just says "Sync Failed"
Sync Summary StatusSync Failed SummaryA validation error occurred while syncing to a remote device Details Sync error on TC-: Load failed from HAR- 01070666:3: Static route duplicates Self IP 172.16.73.8 / 255.255.255.248 implied route Recommended action: Review the error message and determine corrective action on the device
So it looks like its trying to sync the static routes for the HA connectivity then finding out the static route its importing clashes with its own HA network. Any ideas how to get around this? Can i choose to exempt a static route from the config sync?
