Practice question 44 of 440 · medium

Monitored-link health, applicable HA age and device priority all tie. Which remaining criterion selects the primary?

Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.Lower serial number
  2. B.Higher heartbeat-interface priority
  3. C.Higher serial number
  4. D.Longest operating-system uptime regardless of HA age
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • Higher serial number

The higher serial number is the final primary-election tiebreaker after the stated criteria tie. Heartbeat-interface priority selects a heartbeat path, and OS uptime is not interchangeable with election HA age.
