I think I have a pair of 1000v that are not connected anymore together, one does not recognize the other
one should be active and one should be secondary
sh system redundancy status
Redundancy role
---------------
administrative: secondary
operational: secondary
Redundancy mode
---------------
administrative: HA
operational: None
This supervisor (sup-2)
-----------------------
Redundancy state: Active
Supervisor state: Active
Internal state: Active with no standby
Other supervisor (sup-1)
------------------------
Redundancy state: Not present

In vsphere, The 1000v dvs keeps keeping reconfiguing distributed switch tasks on the 1000v
any idea?

Hi Tony,
It looks like this VSM is secondary. You need to go to the console window of the other VSM VM and verify the system redundancy role with 'show system redundancy status'. My guess is that the other VSM is configured for 'Standalone' and we need to change the role to 'Primary' in order for the VSMs to pair.
Once we reconfigure the other VSM as primary, the two VSMs should see each other (given they have L2 connectivity)
Nexus1000v# show system redundancy status
Redundancy role
---------------
administrative: standalone
operational: standalone
Redundancy mode
---------------
administrative: HA
operational: None
This supervisor (sup-1)
-----------------------
Redundancy state: Active
Supervisor state: Active
Internal state: Active with no standby
Other supervisor (sup-2)
------------------------
Redundancy state: Not present
Nexus1000v# con
Nexus1000v(config)# system redundancy role primary
After this change, the VSMs will negotiate and the secondary will reboot. When the secondary comes back up, we should see that they have paired.
Nexus1000v(config)# show redundancy status
Redundancy role
---------------
administrative: primary
operational: primary
Redundancy mode
---------------
administrative: HA
operational: HA
This supervisor (sup-1)
-----------------------
Redundancy state: Active
Supervisor state: Active
Internal state: Active with HA standby
