Pix 515's fail to failover

Subject: Pix 515's fail to failover
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2004 16:56:21 -0600
I have 2 HA pairs that refuse to failover properly.  If the primary is
active, and I try to fail it over to standby, they both go standby and
traffic halts. I have to power cycle the primary and all is well. 
This is the same situation on two separate pairs one pair  running
6.3(3) and one running 6.3(4).  They both started doing this on the
same day.  One during failover testing and one pair just stopped
passing traffic and never failed over so we had a guy power off the
primary and since then failover does not work.  In one case we
replaced the primary and it still happens.  We have replaced serial
and lan failover cables.  Anyone seen or heard of this?  We have close
to 300 pixes, a large number runninf 6.3(3) and some running 6.3(4)
and no others are having trouble but we haven't failed any over since
this started.  I'm afraid to test.
