Hi Dev,
You can find the HA log files in the /log directory through the advanced shell. To access log files through SSH, do as follows:
cd /log
ls
cat LOGFILENAME
The below table describes the four relevant log files for HA.
Log file | Description |
---|---|
msync.log | HA synchronization service. |
ctsyncd.log | Conntrack synchronization service. |
applog.log | HA configuration and status updates. |
csc.log | Central service, which manages all services. |

I initially understood the problem differently too...
But:
If a monitored interface goes “down”, the firewall goes into “FAILED” status and stops processing traffic.
Unfortunately, this also happens at the same time with the slave if both (master and slave) have a "monitored link down".
...unlike the SG firewall which keeps the last "working" node active

So, i was looking into this, as i did not remember this issue.
My cluster did the same approach to this behavior like UTM did.
I brought both monitoring ports down (at the same time) on both appliances.
No reboot of Node1 and no Reboot of Node2.
Node2 went into "Faulty". Node1 went into "Standalone". Traffic still processed by Node1 and no interruption in the network.
As soon as i brought both links up: Reboot of Node2. Node1 stays online as Standalone. No interruption in the network.
Node2 will get back to the cluster after the reboot and everything is working.
So i am not seeing any kind of "issue here".
Just to make sure, i did another test: I killed the Port1 (monitoring port) of AUX first. It will go into Faulty (no reboot). Then i waited some seconds and also brought Port1 down on the primary. Still the primary remains the standalone and waits.

Basically, Sophos Firewall will try to stay online 24/7.
Could be related to the general firmware update question.

And also verify switch configuration as switch misconfiguration cause the issue.
