Symptoms
After issuing 'cpstop;cpstart' commands on the Standby VSX cluster member, the output of 'cphaprob -a if' command shows the following state of the Sync interface configured on Bond interface:
The state of Sync interface as 'UP' in the context of VSX itself (VS0).
The state of Sync interface as 'DOWN' for each Virtual System.
vsid 0:
------
Required interfaces: 3
Required secured interfaces: 1
wrp1 UP non sync(non secured), multicast
bond2 UP non sync(non secured), multicast, bond High Availability
bond4 UP sync(secured), broadcast, bond High Availability
vsid 2:
------
Required interfaces: 3
Required secured interfaces: 1
bond4 DOWN sync(secured), broadcast, bond High Availability
wrp129 UP non sync(non secured), multicast
wrp128 UP non sync(non secured), multicast
vsid 7:
------
Required interfaces: 4
Required secured interfaces: 1
bond4 DOWN sync(secured), broadcast, bond High Availability
wrp448 UP non sync(non secured), multicast
wrp449 UP non sync(non secured), multicast
wrp450 UP non sync(non secured), multicast
Reboot of Standby VSX cluster member resolves the issue.
Cause
Sync interface is working normally. This is only a cosmetic issue - state of the Bond interface is not updated after issuing 'cpstop;cpstart' commands.
