<http://serverfault.com/questions/497182/keepalived-nopreempt-option-not-working#>

I want to use nopreempt option with keepalived vrrp setting to run backup
node as master when master goes down and again reback into network.

I setup nopreempt option in both servers and set state as backup in both
servers but it is not working as per behavior, when master comes back, it
takes ownership.

Please guide to resolve it

  Master Machine:
  ! Configuration File for keepalived
   vrrp_instance VI_1 {
   state BACKUP
   nopreempt
   interface eth0
   virtual_router_id 1
   priority 250
   advert_int 1
   virtual_ipaddress {
    192.168.1.2/24
    }
  }

  Backup Machine :
  ! Configuration File for keepalived
   vrrp_instance VI_1 {
   state BACKUP
   nopreempt
   interface eth0
   virtual_router_id 1
   priority 200
   advert_int 1
   virtual_ipaddress {
     192.168.1.2/24
   }

}
