Knowing that, I have tried another thing : set a name on eth1 in /etc/hosts such as : 10.0.0.2 nodehb #for heart beat where is eth0 remains : 10.0.0.1 node (which also is the hostname) Then in cluster.conf, I have changed all "name" values from "node" to "nodehb" And this seems to work : I mean the Heart-beat frames are effectively running through eth1 now and I have tried to failover by doing ifdown eth1 on the first node and the failover has been successful. So it seems that the Heart-Beat is not linked to the IF linked to the hostname, but really linked only to the names we put in cluster.conf. Could someone confirm that point ? And eventually tell me which eventual drawback I could face to adopt this configuration ? Thanks a lot Alain Moullé -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
