Title: Master not taking over CARP IP
Post by: rudiratlos63 on February 08, 2026, 04:41:09 PM
My HA is working, but the Master will not be promoted to Master after a reboot.
My CARP IPs have the folowing VirtualIP CARP settings:
Backup Server: Advbase set to 1 and Advskew set to 100, Disable preempt: off
Master Server: Advbase set to 1 and Advskew set to 0,   Disable preempt: on

Disable preempt must be set to off on both nodes.
