Hi !

Wy does carp preempt disable not work ?

HOST A

ifconfig_lagg1_alias0="inet vhid 1 pass test alias 172.31.99.100/32"

sysctl -a | grep carp.preempt
net.inet.carp.preempt: 0


HOST B

ifconfig_lagg1_alias0="inet vhid 1 advskew 10 pass test alias 172.31.99.100/32"

sysctl -a | grep carp.preempt
net.inet.carp.preempt: 0

If both hosts are online HOST A is the master !
If Host A is away Host B is the master !
If Host A is back Host A will be master and Host B is Backup even if preempt disabled !
I need a setup that Host B remains master even if Host A would be online

If I change net.inet.carp.preempt: to 1 nothing changes

Both hosts uses 12.1-RELEASE-p2

ifconfig HOST A:

Both hosts:

sysctl -a | grep carp
net.inet.carp.ifdown_demotion_factor: 240
net.inet.carp.senderr_demotion_factor: 240
net.inet.carp.demotion: 0
net.inet.carp.log: 1
net.inet.carp.preempt: 0
net.inet.carp.dscp: 56
net.inet.carp.allow: 1


Thanks !
 
Additional Info :

If i set on both machines

net.inet.carp.preempt: 1

I can see that if i set the with sysctl the net.inet.carp.demotion on the master to 240 the other host is immidiantly the master and the current the backup !

But this only works if i set the carp.preempt to 1

Also if i set the interface on the host A down this host have immediantly have carp.demotion 240 if i look with sysctl -a | grep carp (net.inet.carp.ifdown_demotion_factor: 240)
 
Problem is solved the german translation is misleading !

In both hosts:

You need to set net.inet.carp.preempt: 1
and
ifconfig_lagg1_alias0="inet vhid 1 pass test alias 172.31.99.100/32"

Then the setup work as expected !

Its solved !
