Yes. I have setup another script last night to check output of ifconfig every 1 second, it fails 7-8 times a day - 4 times last night until this morning (central european time here). > - a bug with clumanager versions < 1.2.26.1 re: bonded IPs.

That was my thinking also. We have escalated problem with e1000 driver to HP (e1000 is part of their official support pack for RHEL 3 on DL 380). e1000 driver version is e1000-5.7.6a-1.
