-
Change the smart_center_backup parameter to true using dbedit, gui-dbedit or by editing the objects_5_0.C file.
One the primary cma
- stop cma
- mdsenv cma-primary
- rm $FWDIR/conf/mgha/*
- start cma
- Manually synchronized the secondary via SmartDashboard > Policy > Management HighAvailability
After the sync is successful, the cpca on the secondary cma should start on its own.
