Hi,
I just finished setting up OPNsense High availability for the first time and I can see from the dashboard that 1x firewall is master and the other is backup.
Could anyone please tell me if this message is normal on the backup firewall?
System > High availability > Status
System: High Availability: Status
The backup firewall is not accessible or not configured.
Did I miss a step?
Thank you
Hi,
i have same issue on my testing with 2 VM on ESXi
if someone have an idea ?
This is not an issue.
The master can check if the backup is configured and accessible.
The backup can only log "the backup is not configured", because it doesn't have a backup node itself.
Clustering is a bit ... simple in OPNsense. Only one direction for config sync. OTOH it is not complex, hence easy to debug, and works amazingly well.
Hi,
for my issue is not on backup node i see error it's on Master and i see traffic on pfsync link between my 2 node.
do you know which log i can check to see on slave why replication didn't works ?
Thanks
You need to have the UI active on the HA interface and permit all rules. The master is logging in to the API of the backup for XML config sync.
Hi,
it's what i did but i still not understand what is blocking
Username and password of the backup correct on the master?
Hi,
should be, it's same i use for login on web interface
do you know if we have some log to see what happen on trying sync ?
Thanks
cd to /var/log
push sync in UI
ls -lat in shell to see the last updated logfile ...
Hi,
are you sure is correct location for sync log ? nothing moving
No, I am not sure.
