Configuring the Node Priority
To configure the priority of an MSM node, use the following command:
configure node slot <slot_id> priority <node_pri>
If you do not configure any priorities, MSM-A has a higher priority than MSM-B. For the
parameter, enter A for the MSM installed in slot A or B for the MSM installed in slot B. By default, the
priority is 0 and the node priority range is 1 through 100. The lower the value, the higher the priority.
Relinquishing Master Status
You can cause the master to failover to the backup, thereby relinquishing its master status. To cause the
failover, complete the following steps:
1 Use the

identical software and switch configurations before failover. The output displays the status of the
MSMs, with the master MSM showing
A node may not be synchronized because checkpointing did not occur, incompatible software is
running on the master and backup, or the backup is down.
If the nodes are not synchronized, and both MSMs are running ExtremeWare XOS 11.0 or later,

proceed to step 2.
If the nodes are not synchronized, and one MSM is running ExtremeWare XOS 10.1 or earlier,

proceed to step 3.
If the nodes are synchronized, proceed to step 3.
