Failover to deprecated interface

Question

Hi,
I have a 2 node cluster (SC 3.2) with Link based IPMP. Ive configured a very basic Resource Group with a LogicalHostname and simple Apache start script to test failover.
I have 2 interfaces (ce0 and ce4) with the management IP on ce0, my problem is that when I start the logicalhostname resource it is created on ce4, this also occurs when I failover the resource group to the failover node.
I have cut/pasted some information below and any input would be gratefully received - please note I have had to remove the 1st 2 octets as our security requires.. any more output required please let me know....
On another note, I created a dependency of apache-test to testip-res so what is the best command to view the actual dependency please..??.. VCS is a simple hares ...

Answer 1

I've checked with my networking colleagues and this is what is expected. The logical host should end up on the NIC with the least number of logical IP addresses plumb.
Is it actually causing any problem? If so, could you post back and I can take it up with my colleagues.
The commands to show resource dependency would be:
clrs show -v <resource_name> | grep -i depend
For resource groups you can get dependencies and affinities using:
clrg show -v <rg_name> | egrep -e "affinity|depend"
