Hi =20 Firstly, many thanks to Stefan (who provided me a diff of the CURRENT update) and Bruce for advising me that the "multiple CARP interface destroy" bug is fixed in CURRENT. =20 Jordan, thanks for your reply, but I cant find a reference to CARP being unsuitable for this purpose in the CARP man page, have I perhaps misunderstood you? I also did a quick search of the freebsd.org site and cant find any mention of it being an issue - If you could provide me with a link I'd be grateful. =20 Further to this, I have been in the office today performing local testing as opposed to remote testing and have noticed that when both machines in the cluster are using xl network cards, failover etc seems fine. However, when having one node using xl and the other using em/bge I can see the em or bge card physically go down after it reverts to backup mode, then come back up and goto master. (this wasnt displaying in the messages log, but was obvious on the console). I believe that this down period is sufficient for it to miss the remaining advertisements and believe it is the master again. For some reason it doesnt seem to ever remove the mac address or recover after this point, but I'm not particularly suprised. Not sure how to take this further, but I'll continue fiddling. =20 Many thanks =20 Ross =20 =20 =20 All correspondence, attachments and agreements remain strictly subject to f= ully executed contract.
