firewall.management.ha.status._dynamic_._undefined_ Peer will join the central if not joined yet

Essentially with the change of Central UI, there was a little bit of a hick up in the Dark Mode of FW Central Management. 

DEV is investigating the issues right now and will fix the layout. 

The sorting (5/10/25) Firewalls should be there to have a better overview in bigger setups. But you see another issue. This could eventually also explain your other issue. It should not split up the firewalls in two pages. The splitup seems to cause Central to believe, the Cluster is not in one group (essentially your issue alert). 

Could you registered both appliances to central?

I'm afraid to do so - this would regenerate the Heartbeat Cert, correct?

There is no "one" Certificate. Each and every firewall will generate one Certificate. And this will be pushed to the Clients (Essentially per Firewall cluster you will have one CA). 

Registration will generate a new certificate - That is correct. If you have concern of the duration, you should do it on a off work hour. 

You could create a support case to get this investigated, why the split is happening. I could not see this in any of my installations. 

OK, I'm very sensitive about the Heartbeat certificate changes as you could read from my other posts.

But thanks for confirmation and other details you posted about the new layout.

We've seen this firewall grouping issue (show 5, see only 3 clusters) once before but it has been fixed but is now back again.

If you change to 10 Items instead of 5? 

that works and guess what?

then the error is also gone. If I switch back to 5 - it is shown as orange warning again.

5:

10:

Yeah, the problem is actually, each and every firewall is considered to be "One unique firewall". This means, you are having 6 Firewalls, not 3 clusters. This means, the firewall page breaks after 5 and split one into the next page, causing this alert.

It is a cosmetic issue, which came with the recent change of CM and DEV is currently looking into this. 

Thank you - so no worries to begin the weekend!
