Hi Rajagopal, Thank you for your response I have created a cluster configuration by adding IP resource with value 192.168.25.153 (some value) and created a service which just has IP resource part of it. I have set all requisite configuration such two node, node names, failover,fencing etc. Upon trying to start then service(enable service),it failed - clurgmgrd: [31853]: <debug> 192.168.25.135 is not configured Then manually added this IP to host ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.25.135 Then service could start but it gave message - clurgmgrd: [31853]: <debug> 192.168.25.135 already configured So do I have to add virtual interface manually (as above or any other method?) before I could start service with IP resource under it?
