Symptom
The exec command xconnect backup force-switchover or
l2vpn redundancy activate may fail with the message
%Xconnect: manual switchover failed
when attempting to switch over to a backup Any Transport over MPLS (AToM)
pseudowire.
Conditions
This symptom has been observed on a dual-RP system after a Stateful Switchover
(SSO) has been performed.
Workaround
Use the exec command clear xconnect or clear
l2vpn service to reset the state of the pseudowire prior after
performing SSO.
