HA Issues

Sophos UTM 9.5 X2

ESXi 6.5

 

I have two UTM's running on different servers connected with a direct cable for HA. Last year I had to turn off one of the servers because I get logs full of stuff like below.

So I thought maybe the 2nd UTM was borked. So this morning I wiped the 2nd UTM, reinstalled from the ISO, turned on HA and this started again.  Also, the traffic on the HA interface is always going 500 to 1000Mbit which I don't think is normal.  I had another set of UTM's in the company with the same setup and they never have this issue.  With HA is it better for a direct wire or using a switch? Is there anything I need to edit in ESXi to make this work better?  The errors started the moment I turned on HA.

Below is a graph of the traffic from ETH2 the HA interface.  This is in Mbit/sec
