This fault occurs in an unlikely event that the fabric interconnects in a cluster configuration could not reach an agreement for selecting the primary fabric interconnect. This impacts the full HA functionality of the fabric interconnect cluster.

Recommended Actions

If you see this fault, take the following actions:

  • Verify that the initial setup configuration is correct on both fabric interconnects.

  • Verify that the L1 and L2 links are properly connected between the fabric interconnects.

  • In the Cisco UCS Manager CLI, run the cluster force primary local mgmt command on one fabric interconnect.

  • Reboot the fabric interconnects.

  • If the above actions did not resolve the issue, create a show tech support file and contact Cisco TAC. Click Here
