How do I disable NSP DR failovers?

Purpose

Perform this procedure to disable the failover function in a DR NSP deployment.

Note: Disabling the NSP failover function is intended to be a temporary measure for system maintenance purposes only. It is strongly recommended that you re-enable failovers after any maintenance that requires failovers to be disabled.

Note: You require root user privileges on the NSP cluster host in a data center.

Note: A leading # character in a command line represents the root user prompt, and is not to be included in a typed command.

Steps
 
1 

Log in as the root user on the NSP cluster host in either data center.

2 

Open a console window.

3 

Enter the following:

# kubectl exec -n $(kubectl get pods -A | awk '/nspos-asm/ {print $1;exit}') -it $(kubectl get pods -A| awk '/nspos-asm/ {print $2;exit}') -c nspos-asm-app -- /opt/nsp/os/asm/bin/asmctl disableAutoFailover ↵

The following is displayed:

Auto-failover successfully disabled

4

5 

Close the open console windows.
