Manually Switching Activity Between LAG Members

To manually force the active LAG member in an active/backup pair to give up its active state and switch it to the current inactive member (that is, to cause the primary member to become inactive and the backup member to become active), enter the following Admin commands:

solace(admin)# interface
solace(admin)# interface <phy-interface>
solace(admin/interface)# switch-active

Where:

<phy-interface> is a string specifying the NAB network interface. Valid values are <cartridge>/<slot>/<port> | <cartridge>/<slot>/lag<N> (for example: chassis/lag1, 1/5/2, 1/6/lag1). There is no default value.

Management port LAGs are revertive, while NAB port LAGs are not. Thus, the switch-active Interface Admin EXEC command is supported on NAB port LAGs only.
