"mode=1" is Active/Passive and I use it extensively with no trouble. I'm
not sure where "heartbeat" comes from, but I might be missing the
obvious. Can you share your bond and eth configuration files here please
(as plain-text attachments)?

Secondly, make sure that you are actually using that interface/bond. Run
'gethostip -d <nodename>', where "nodename" is what you set in
cluster.conf. The returned IP will be the one used by the cluster.

Back to the bond; A failed link would nearly instantly transfer to the
backup link. So if you are going down for 2~3 seconds on both links,
something else is happening. Look at syslog on both nodes around the
time the last fence happened and see what logs are written just prior to
the fence. That might give you a clue.
