[Linux-cluster] Some questions about heart-beat under Cluster Suite 4

[Alain Moulle]

Hi
Thanks. Effectively,I saw this in documentation but
in fact, my question was more precisely :
if we have two eth interfaces eth0 and eth1 , and we don't want the
heart beat goes through eth1 in any case, even if the
CS4 has to failover in case of eth0 failure, is there
a way in CS4 configuration to avoid eth1 ? or do we have
to disable Broadcast (or Multicast if choosen in CS4
configuration) at the eth interface configuration ?

Thanks
Alain
