Problem with auto failover start SC5020
Hello!
While we are testing Failover functionality on SC5020 getting below error.
Error Code:
Error enabling Auto Failover : Rollback DisasterRecovery:Manager Request: 1159360266 ObjectMethod (1) Source: IPC Leader: 0 State: 2 CallObjectMethod RetVal: Failure Idx: 18 - Rollback DisasterRecovery:Manager Request: 2524203256 ObjectMethod (1) Source: API Leader: 1 State: 5 IpcSendMethodToPeers RetVal: Failure Idx: 18
Have no idea what's happened...Your response on this will be highly appreciated. Thank you!

AutoFailOver indicates youre working with sync. Replication or LiveVolume. You should open a support Ticket. The error msg doesnt help.
If you dont have support revert the replication back to a single volume and than try to setup again.
We have LiveVolumes working since 7-8Y and here the Failover works.
Regards,
Joerg

Found out that this is not a feasible solution for us, as we would like to enable this on existing production LUNs.
which way to look? maybe something with the network or with the controllers?
Thank you

Ensure that your network settings are correctly configured. Misconfigurations can lead to communication issues between the controllers
Verify that both controllers are functioning properly. You can check their status through the Dell Storage Manager or directly on the hardware

What kind of sync youre using? LiveVolume or sync.Replication?

@DELL-Marco B check all network settings - everything is OK, controllers with no errors. Still have this message...May be restart controllers?

Hello, I defintely recommend that you raise a proper ticket on this.
In the meantime I'm wondering if this could help.
