Stop your eth2 NICs from autonegotiating with the appropriate driver

for gig cards force them to 1000BaseTX-FD.
Does it matter that i compiled the nic drivers in the kernel, or should i
load them as modules? I have now set them to the correct speed and set
autoneg off, using ethtool instead of mii-tool.
You mentioned real-time :) I changed the autonegotiating setting and the
link apparently dropped long enough to cause a failover. Luckily this wasn't
the production LVS :D

It looks like this was the problem. Still not all connections are being
transferred to the backup node upon a failover though. I don't suppose
there's a percentage of connections that is guaranteed to sync correctly, is
there? (for example: of 100 connections, about 80 of them should sync
properly)
Thanks for your help so far!
Kind regards,
Sebastian
