Description

This article provides step-by-step instructions to switch redundancy groups from one node to another.

Symptoms

If manual failover or the requirement to failover the Redundancy group from one node to another for any specific activity.

Solution

Below commands are used to failover the Redundancy Groups from one node to another: 
> request chassis cluster failover node <0 or 1> redundancy-group <0 through 255> 

For chassis cluster configurations, initiate manual failover in a redundancy group from one node to the other, which becomes the primary node, and automatically reset the priority of the group to 255. The failover stays in effect until the new primary node becomes unavailable, the threshold of the redundancy group reaches 0, or you use the request chassis cluster failover reset command. 

Note: After a manual failover, you must use the request chassis cluster failover reset command before initiating another failover. 
>request chassis cluster failover reset redundancy-group <0 through 255>
