The partition "go-standby" command is sometimes too slow to finish taking over. When this happens usually the system briefly goes active/active and then resolves to the preferred node.
When the confd instances are failing back & forth, the control plane daemons will be disconnected.
Attempting to force the partition active instance location using the go-standby. Normal HA framework initiated failovers work properly.
Allow the HA framework to manage instance locations and don't use "go-standby" to attempt to force instance location. If necessary, the "mode" can be set temporarily to "prefer" the desired location.
Performance of yield/takeover operation has been improved.
