State Not Consistent of NSX BFD BGP or HA Functionality

State Not Consistent of NSX BFD BGP or HA Functionality

Problem

Pings are not consistent. BFD status changes occur. Edge HA failovers occur consistently.

Cause

Solution

1. Run admin cli Get edge-cluster history state.

   The CLI showcases history of edge cluster HA transition and reason. The only acceptable state is Active. Anything else means edge node is down and no service is able to function. For the purpose of identifying events leading to such HA state, focus on the timestamp and "Reason" line.

2. Run admin cli get diagnosis topology to view status of all attached interfaces and config.
