Crash Mode

The cluster enters Crash mode when the system meets an unexpected, irrecoverable error during a fresh install or a reboot process flow. Recovery requires that you reset the system to factory settings.

The system enters Crash mode in any one of the following conditions:

1. System reboot with an environment inconsistency:
   1. Model
   2. Port group (applicable to only hardware model SZ144)
   3. Firmware Version
2. Fresh install fail.
3. Join cluster fail.

Crash Mode

To reset the system to factory settings in case of Crash mode, use the set-factory command.

Setting the Controller to Factory Defaults

Suspend Mode

The cluster enters Suspend mode if there is an environment error during the reboot process flow. The Configurer sets the system mode to Suspend and stops all applications. As this is a temporary failure, recovery requires that you reboot the system.

The system enters Suspend mode in any one of the following conditions:

1. Platform applications cannot be launched successfully.
2. Failed on membership authentication in cluster.
