What Are The Cases When Election Of Master Takes Place In A Cluster?

Answer»

A master is ELECTED by a set of HA agents whenever the agents are not in network contact with a master. A master election thus occurs when HA is first enabled on a CLUSTER and when the host on which the master is running:

  • fails,
  • becomes network partitioned or isolated,
  • is disconnected from Vcenter Server,
  • is put into maintenance or STANDBY mode,
  • or when HA is configured on the host.

Note: Removing slave ESXI from a cluster doesn’t have any effect on election process i.e. if any slave ESXi is removed or SHUTDOWN or put into maintenance mode, election will not happen.
