Let's say I have a service that needs to be taken from one
gfs node to a another, when failure occur, most of the time this
require IP take over...

In a case where we have 2 gfs servers, and we to IP take over
thru IP allias(one of the servers will handle both servers addresses),
how this will affect the stomith and the back calls? If you have the
service monitoring software which do that, how this can interrupt
the GFS process,if a fail over command is executed(and the good system has 
the IP of the failed..) before GFS stomith the
bad system(guy)? We take a chance to kill our healthy system and loose
the cluster, is that correct?


How about if you use the GFS nodes as memexpd with failover + your
services with service monitoring and stuff?

Also for communication between the nodes, if we use 2 network ports,
with two different ip-networks, can we setup the cluster to
utilize both of them, so if one of the network ports is down
the other on sill be good for back calls and heartbeat? Is that
available in the configuraiton options?
