Okay, thanks.
It looks like I have to use the notify_master and notify_backup to run scripts
to configure up and down the VIP and send gratuitous arps (I'm using send_arp).
I was at first expecting keepalived to do this for me based on the VIP
definitions in its config file, but it seems that that is not the case.
At the moment it all actually appears to be working as desired. The main
problem was the stupid typo in my config. The priorities help too!

Thanks for the reference. I will take a look.
