VVR has 2 primaries

I have successfully installed NBU on both nodes. Thanks for the help everyone. The only outstanding issue I now have is with the replication. If this needs to be a new post in a different section ...

    When you do a takeover, when the old primary comes back it becomes an acting secondary.  To return this to a full secondary, Try running:

    vradmin -g NBUCATDG fbsync nbuRVG
     
    If it doesn't work on one node, then try the other node.
    If command doesn't work on either host, then post output (from both nodes) of:
     
    vxprint -P
vxrlink -g NBUCATDG status rlink_name_from_vxprint-P_output
