Refer to the exhibit.

The former primary node was relegated to the secondary rote but is stuck in the Faulted state.

Which two steps must you take to restore operation in the high availability (HA) cluster? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B, C

In a FortiSOAR HA cluster, if the former primary node is relegated to a secondary role but is stuck in a Faulted state, it indicates that the node has lost sync or faced a failure during a role change. To restore its functionality, first, you should remove it from the cluster using the csadm ha leave-cluster command. Once it has left the cluster, you can use the csadm ha join-cluster command to re-add the node as a secondary node. This process will allow it to sync back up with the cluster and resume its role as intended.

I thought you had to join the cluster before leaving it?

Performing a fire drill is a good idea too, just to be safe.

Wait, can you really just restart the node? Seems risky.

I’m leaning towards option B and C. Leaving the cluster and then joining back seems like a logical sequence, but I need to double-check the order.

I feel like performing a fire drill was mentioned as a way to check integrity, but I’m not convinced it’s necessary right now.

I think we did a similar question where we had to restart a node to fix a faulted state. That might be option D, but I can't recall if that's the best first step here.

I remember we discussed the importance of the csadm commands in our last practice session, but I'm not sure if it's "leave-cluster" or "join-cluster" that we need first.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question mentions restoring operation in the HA cluster, so I'm thinking we need to do something to get the node back online. I'm not sure if a fire drill is the right approach, so I'll probably go with options B and C.

Alright, this seems straightforward enough. I think the key is to get the node that's in the Faulted state back into the cluster, so I'm going to go with options B and C. Shouldn't be too hard to get this one right.

Okay, let's see here. The node is in the Faulted state, so I'm guessing we'll need to take some kind of action to get it back into the cluster. I'm leaning towards options B and C, but I'll double-check the details.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about the steps required to restore the HA cluster.

I hope the node in the Faulted state isn't on fire! That would make the fire drill a bit more realistic.

After that, we can have it rejoin the HA cluster.

I'm just glad it's not a node in the 'Furloughed' state. That would be a whole different set of problems!

I'm not sure about the fire drill. That seems like a lot of extra work just to test the database integrity. B and C seem more straightforward.

Hmm, D sounds intriguing. Restarting the node might force a new election and get it back into the cluster.
