Jeff- We have done exactly that. We have some services (various ports of course) using the same VIP. However, we have also set up other services that need to run on the same ports using a second VIP. One issue we ran into, though- was that the VIP's configured as aliases needed to be in the same network block as the RIP on the physical device (eth0). We found that in order to add a VIP in a different network block, we needed to assign another RIP to a physical device, and then alias that second device for services. Hopefully the example below will make that clearer:
First set of services: eth0: 192.168.1.50 <----RIP eth0:0 192.168.1.100 <--VIP eth0:1 192.168.1.101 <--VIP eth0:2 172.30.1.100 <-- VIP ** This would not work correctly, therefore we configure the second set below- Second set of services: eth1: 172.30.1.50 <--RIP eth1:0 172.30.1.100 <--VIP eth1:1 172.30.1.101 <--VIP Then, just reference your VIP's in the config for your software. We use ldirectord for this. There are probably different/better ways to do this- setting up static routes, etc but this solution works for us. Good luck.
