Fixed In:
17.1.0, 15.1.8

Opened: Apr 12, 2022

Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

There might be problems in DAG context synchronization in high availability (HA) mirroring on VELOS platform. The problem can be observed as a long sequence of logs similar to: notice SDAG CDP: Selected DAG state from primary PG 0 for CMP state 07 with clock 4622

Impact

Traffic is disrupted when failover occurs.

Conditions

-- An high availability (HA) pair is setup -- The problem is currently known to manifest itself particularly for tenants with 3 blades.

Workaround

-- The system should eventually heal itself after up to a few minutes -- Force a high availability (HA) reconnect, for example by modifying sys db statemirror.clustermirroring to "within" then back to "between".

Fix Information

Fixed DAG context synchronization problem in high availability (HA) mirroring on VELOS platforms.
