If the HA Summary field displays Disruptive Failover Ready, click the
Synchronize Services Button and wait for the CPs to complete a
synchronization of services, so that a Non-Disruptive Failover is ready.
Once the HA Summary field displays Non-Disruptive Failover Ready a
failover can be initiated without disrupting frame traffic on the fabric.
