## Symptoms

- * Configuration PNOTE in a Maestro environment.

* Reboot takes a long time.

* The */var/log/configuration_reboot_reason.log* file shows a mismatch in the */config/active* file.

## Cause

The */config/active* configuration file is mismatched with other Security Group Members (SGMs), causing the remaining SGMs to stay in the DOWN status until you address the issue. It is not possible to resolve the mismatch through the image auto-clone feature for the SGMs.
