      We have a carp setup with several VIPs.
      The sync interface is on its own nic with a direct connect cable to the secondary.

      A few times now the secondary became the master.
      I was logged into the primary via the carp IP at the time.

      How to do I troubleshoot this kind of thing?

      WAN is igb2
      HA sync is igb0

      this from the system log on primary.

        No suggestions?

        It cant be network traffic on Sync interface since its a direct connect.

        Not sure where to look and how to fix this.

        What the correct procedure to swing  the interface back to primary?
        Last time I just rebooted the secondary but it seems a bit crude.
