Configures the priority of the node.
| slot_id | Specifies the slot of the node. A is for the MSM/MM installed in slot A. B is for the MSM/MM installed in slot B. |
| node_pri | Specifies the priority of the node. The default 0 gives MSM-A a higher priority over MSM-B. The range is 1 to 100; 0 means you have not configured a node priority. |
Default node priority is 0.
Use this command to configure the priority of the node. The lower the number, the higher the priority.
Node state—The node state must be STANDBY to participate in leader election and to be selected primary. If the node is in the INIT, DOWN, or FAIL states, the node will not participate in leader election.
Configuration priority—This is a user assigned priority. The configured priority is compared only after the node meets the minimum thresholds in each category for it to be healthy. Required processes and devices must not fail.
Software health—This represents the percent of processes available.
Health of secondary hardware components—This represents the health of switch components, such as the power supplies, fans, and so forth.
Slot ID—The MSM/MM slot where the node is installed (MSM-A or MSM-B).
If you do not configure any priorities, MSM-A has a higher priority than MSM-B.
The following command configures a priority of 2 for MSM-B:
configure node slot B priority 2
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 10.1.
This command is available only on modular switches.
