Configuring HA - No mgmt2 interface listed for management interface reservation

Hello all.  I am getting ready to configure a second 1000D into an HA cluster.  From the GUI under the System -> HA menu I am turning on the slider for "Management Interface Reservation" and I want to select the mgmt2 interface as this is the interface that will have unique IPs between the two 1000D devices so that I may manage them from the GUI individually.   The mgmt2 interface is not listed in this dropdown.  Any thoughts as to why?   Thanks in advance.

Are you sure it's not referred by other part of config? I regularly don't trust GuI's "Ref." column and go to cli and would run "show | grep -f mgmt2".

Thank you for the assistance.  Your command led me to find that there was a static route involving mgmt2.  Once I removed that static route it then let me select mgmt2 as the management reservation port for my HA setup.   Thank you!!
