HA will not work on eth3 (Active-Passive)

Hello. I think this is an easy question for you, but I get not running this.
My Astaro is running on 7.202. I want to add now a second (equal) machine.
What I did. I installed 7.200 on the second machine without doing any changes. I connected both machines via eth3 as descibed. I have done the changes via Web Console as attached.
Nothing happens. I can see on the dashboard, the HA State was up and the link was up (not yet on the Screenshot, but it showed up)
What do I have to do then that the HA is working? I restarted both machines.
Sorry to bother you with this, but I didn´t get this.

Master is 7.202, new Slave is 7.200 ?
This cant work, due different versions.
Remove slave from HA, update slave til 7.202
Add slave to HA, voila

Dear Mr. Kemter,
I have now both on 7.202, without success.
What do I need to choose for an Operatione mode on the master and on the slave? Automatic Configuration, or switch to hot standby? Do I need to do any configuration on the slave after install and update the software?
Sorry to bother you again.

Select OperationMode HotStandby on both maschines.
Do you use a crossover cable for HA Connection ?

OK, I will test again and check the settings.
Yes, I use a crossover cable on eth3. It was already running on v6.
I could also see "found link beat on eth3", but nothing started. I also changed the salve IP to the same on the master, w/o success.

When my HA did not initialize I solved it like this:
- Power off Node 2
- Set up Node1 with your config (Firmware should be same or newer than NOde2)
- Make Sure HA is off (just because it was configured before..)
- Wait until HA is definitely off
- Reboot Node1
- Set Node1 HA mode Active/Passive, Enable Autojoin
- Cable and Power on Node 2
- Connect to Node2 Web interface (default ip 192.168.0.1 or maybe you already have a config running, then use this ip)
- Set Node 2 HA mode Automatic
- Connect to Node 1 - you should see Node 2 initializing in HA

Thank you. My last question. Do you mean with autojoin "Enable automatic configuration of new devices" ?

could not test until now, as it would be business critical at the moment. Will do at the weekend and inform. 10000x Thanks
