Thanks,
I can't try right now but I hope I'll be able tomorrow.
Anyway, it could be that my problem is related to the "preempt" option.
The man page I should have looked at before posting says this :
For firewalls and routers with multiple interfaces, it is desirable to
failover all of the carp interfaces together, when one of the physical
interfaces goes down. This is achieved by the preempt option. Enable it
on both host A and B
So when I take pcn2 down, preemt probably takes all carp devices down,
including the one that should become MASTER...
If your solution does not work, I thought I'd try a failover trunking
of pcn2 and pcn3, giving some trunk0 interface I could associate with
a single carp device.
I'll keep this updated asap.
Best regards,
