[Shahin Hasanov]

In  /usr/local/sbin/ucarp_up.sh(below shown extract of it)  script ucarp waiting while it became primary. It tooks about 20 sec as written http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=hast.conf&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+10.2-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html . 
 
for i in `jot 30`; do
        pgrep -f "hastd: ${resource} \(secondary\)" >/dev/null 2>&1 || break
        sleep 1
done
if pgrep -f "hastd: ${resource} \(secondary\)" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
        logger -p local0.error -t hast "Secondary process for resource ${resource} is still running after 30 seconds."
        exit 1

A hastd daemon never picks its role automatically. The role has to be configured with the hastctl(8) control utility by additional software like ucarp	or heartbeat that can reliably manage role separation and switch secondary node to primary role in case of the primary's failure.
