Thanks for the pointers.
I'm not using the official RHN pakages (CentOS), so I couldn't run to RH for
official support...


Regards,

Kit

This is not likely to be an LVS problem - it's likely to be heartbeat, pulse
or nanny causing the problem.

This means you either need to ask on the right RedHat list:

https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/piranha-list
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster

or ask Linux-HA instead:

http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha

Essentially, the failover part of your system is doing what it's designed to
do. You need to work out *why* the nodes stop speaking to each other, and
why they start again.
