states successfully.

Select DeviceHigh AvailabilityOperational Commands and click
the Suspend local device link.

the High Availability widget.
Restore the suspended firewall to a functional state.
Wait for a couple of minutes, and then verify that preemption has
occurred, if Preemptive is enabled.
On the firewall you previously suspended,
select DeviceHigh AvailabilityOperational Commands and click
the Make local device functional link.
In the High Availability widget on the Dashboard,
confirm that the firewall has taken over as the active firewall
and that the peer is now in a passive state.
