Issue/Introduction
After shutting down HSRP interfaces on both the primary and secondary routers, CA Spectrum is asserting "Router Redundancy Lost" alarms:
| Major | Nov 13, 2014 2:25:28 AM CST | 192.0.2.1 | Router Redundancy Lost - The HSRP group with virtual IP address 192.168.2.2 has lost all its fail over routers causing redundancy to be lost for this virtual IP. | System | 0xc4007902 | CiscoHSRPVDev | Nov 13, 2014 4:42:20 AM CST | spectrum@SpectroSERVER |
Environment
Component:
Cause
The interface(s) in question are still configured interfaces on the device but are in the "shutdown" state. Although shut down, it is still a configured interface on the device and the mibs will still reflect it as a configured interface.
interface Vlan1
description interface
ip address 192.0.2.1 255.255.255.0
ip access-group interface out
ip helper-address 192.0.2.1
shutdown
standby 1 ip 192.0.2.2
Resolution
The best solution is to remove the configuration for the interface from the device configuration. As a work around, set the HSRPMode attribute 0x21174f to Off or Passive on the associated CiscoHSRPApp model should stop Spectrum from polling every poll cycle:
Off
The HSRP table is not polled.
Passive
The HSRP table is polled once at the activation. Otherwise, CA Spectrum relies on updates from traps to update this information.
Active
The HSRP table is polled every poll interval in addition to the passive processing.
