Are you using IPaddr2 to manage your IP address? If so, then just change it to IPaddr. The only real difference I saw when looking at the documentation is that IPaddr2 doesn't have a limit to the number of addresses it can configure on an interface, while IPaddr is limited to around 100. Since I'll be using at most 2 and I like being able to see the address in the interface list, I've been using IPaddr without problems for a while now. This agent creates an alias (like eth0:0) for the new address. http://www.linux-ha.org/HeartbeatResourceAgent/IPaddr http://www.linux-ha.org/HeartbeatResourceAgent/IPaddr2 _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
