Customer want to test eSight HA switchover time. They think the switchover time(heartbeat time) is too long, and want to change.
Handling Process
When active eSight is power down, the standby eSight will become active after at least 10 minutes by default.
Run command as below:
haconf -makerw
hahb -modify Icmp AYARetrylimit 9 //Change this number to adjust the switchover time.
haconf -makero
Note: The hearbeat will be down after 60 seconds, then standby eSight will send packets to detect the active eSight for 9 times. Everytime is 60 seconds. So the swithover time is (1+9)*60=600 seconds (10 minutes).
You can check the switchover time via command hahb –display.
