In IRIS log, what does “Active server not defined, cannot redirect mirror connection” mean?

#InterSystems IRIS

From  IRIS log, I found lots of following content

 

05/05/22-01:05:11:375 (16166) 0 [Generic.Event] ECP: Mirror Connection request from 'SM25SDLMIIRROR:LOCALHOST.LOCALDOMAIN:IRIS' (10.xxx.xxx.27:33040)

05/05/22-01:05:11:376 (16166) 1 [Generic.Event] ECP: Active server not defined, cannot redirect mirror connection

 

Could any one explain a little bit for me?

John should be on the right track here, but to elaborate here are the relevant docs:

https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=GHA_mirror_set_config#GHA_mirror_set_configecp

A mirrored ECP connection will try to connect to the primary, but your message is telling you that you don't have an active primary mirror member. You should investigate the mirror status / messages.log.

Yes, there are primary server, backup server and an arbiter. Recently servers experienced some network connection issue, lots of primary/backup switch happened. In the log, I found lots of above log content.

Also, there are lots of similar content like following:
