Hello everyone,
My bad, it was configured in trunc with portChannel for ingress and egress traffic, so I need a link aggregation and vlan interface to create. Now everything is fine, primary DP is active and other standby for both traffic types.
Thanks everyone for helping me.
Regards,

Thanks Jeroen. Both appliance are in same DC, same rack.
I will check with network team about network group.

strange, did you check with your network team that the group number you use doesn't conflict with the number of an existing standby group or any network group that uses Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP)?
other question, what is the latency between the 2 DP's (same DC or 2 different DC's?)

I've enabled standby group for both with the same groupID and authorization data, but different priority. First it was ok, primary was active and standby was in state of listening, but in one minute both are active and vip owners
Please help me with this configuration.

Thanks for link! Do I need to configure something between these two appliances before creating standby control group? How these two datapowers know about eachother? In standby control I have only VIP address to configure, not the address of other appliance.

Uli has provided the link to the process to configure standby for ingress. The two big keys to it are definitely making the group number unique (meaning change it), ensuring the priority is set properly (something like 100 for the desired active appliance and 50 for the standby). The only difference between the two appliance interface configurations here is the "priority" setting.
Certainly, then, when one is active, the other will be passive until such time the active appliance is not available or standby is expressly changed via a yield standby action.
>> This should have said:
"The only difference between the two appliance interface standby configurations here..."

Both. If active appliance fails, I want standby appliance to take both, ingress and egress traffic.

For ingress or egress?
