Forcing the primary node to stay primary

In an HA setup, you can force a healthy primary node to remain primary even after a failover. You can enable this option either on a primary node in an HA pair. This option allows the primary node to be in primary state as long as it is healthy.

On a standalone node, you must use this option before you can add a node to create an HA pair. When you add the new node, the existing node continues to function as the primary node, and the new node becomes the secondary node.

To force the primary node to stay primary by using the command line interface

At the command prompt, type:

set ha node -hastatus STAYPRIMARY

To force the primary node to stay primary by using the GUI

Navigate to System > High Availability, on the Nodes tab, open the local node, and select STAY PRIMARY.
