Issue
- Expected behavior: When the primary unavailable, the replica server should authenticate the user request.
- Actual behavior: The authentication request fails, the auth request is not sent over to the replica server, the user prompted for password vs passcode, and authentication fails although sdopts.rec is configured properly
- Stop the services on the primary server
on AM 8.1 /opt/rsa/am/server/rsaserv stop all on AM 7.1 /RSA_AM_HOME/server/rsaam stop all
- Try to authenticate from acetest
[root@DPMJP 64bit]# ./acetest Cannot communicate with the ACE/Server.
Cause
Resolution
Uninstall this old version and install the latest one v7.1.0.1.25
