show failover-status

This command shows whether failover is enabled on the Sensor and the status of the peer
Sensor. You can run the command from either Sensor. The output includes the fields
Failover Enabled (must be YES) and Peer Status (must be UP). The former indicates
whether the Sensor on which the command is issued has been configured to be part of a
Failover Pair, and the latter shows the current state of the communication between the two
Sensors.

downloadstatus

This command displays the status of various download/upload operations: signature,
software image, and DoS profile downloads (from Manager to Sensor) and DoS profile and
debug trace uploads (from Sensor to Manager).
Lists the number of times you have performed the operation, status of your previous
attempt to perform the operation (including-if the operation failed-the cause of failure), and
the time the command was executed.
If trust is not established, check the Sensor name and shared secret on both the
Sensor and the Manager.
If the Sensor is not seeing attacks for a significant period of time, check status for
Sensor health and established trust. Also, check your port configuration and cabling
setup.
