IP aliases used for heartbeat
These IP addresses are allocated from a pool of private, non-routable addresses,
and are used to monitor the communication interfaces without the need to
change their base (boot) IP address.
This is useful in certain cases when it is not desirable to change the base IP
addresses (as they are defined in AIX) of the network adapters on each node,
Note: It is possible to configure one persistent node IP label (address) per
network per node. For example, if you have a node connected to two networks
defined in HACMP, that node can be identified via two persistent IP labels
(addresses), one for each network.
Restriction: It is not possible to configure a persistent node IP label on the SP
Switch, on ATM Classical IP, or on non-IP networks.

and those addresses do not conform to the HACMP requirements (they are in
the same subnet, so the network adapters cannot be monitored).
For this purpose, HACMP provides the usage of heartbeat over IP aliases. |
