2.4.8 Set Cluster Holdtime

After a cluster is set up, some communication fault maybe occurs due to network
problem or switch reset. If the fault has not been addressed before the hold time
configured on switch expires, the member state goes down. When the communication
is resumed, such member needs to join the cluster again (this process is conducted
automatically). Otherwise, the member stays normal and does not to join again.
Perform the following configuration in cluster view.
Table 2-19 Set cluster holdtime
Set cluster holdtime.
Restore the default cluster holdtime.
Note that the above command can only be executed on the administrator device, which
will advertise the cluster timer value to the member devices.
By default, the cluster holdtime is 60 seconds.

2.4.9 Set Cluster Timer to Specify the Handshaking Message Interval

The member devices and administrator device send handshake messages to
communicate with each other in real time. The administrator device monitors member
states and link states inside the cluster through handshaking with members
periodically.
After joining the cluster, a member device starts handshaking with the administrator
device regularly. an administrator device and member device consider the current
communication as normal, as long as they can receive the handshake messages.
A member or an administrator device considers the communication with each other as
failed, if it has not received the handshake messages for three continuous times.
In addition, the member devices send handshake messages to report the topology
changes to the administrator device for processing.
You can use the following command to set the handshake message interval on an
administrator device.
Perform the following configuration in cluster view.
