Just to let know the group that the problem was solved this way:

1) when the NICs were replaced on CAS2, the files
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2(3) were updated with the new Mac
Addresses.
2) for some reason, after a few reboots, the NAC appliance changed the NICs
order, the integrated NICs became eth2 and eth3 and the non-integrated
became eth0 and eth1.
3) the HWADDR entry in the ifcfg2 and ifcfg3 were commented out. After a
reboot, the NICs showed up in the correct order.
4) the problem was still active, no way to ping from CAS1 to CAS2 over the
HA interface (eth2).
5) we noticed that in CAS1, the server that didn't have any hardware
failures, the HWADDR entry was uncommented and that it appeared in the end
of the file. We made the same on CAS2, and after a reboot everything started
working again.

This doesn't make too much sense, but it worked. Any comments ?

Subject: Re: MacOS Lion not recognized by current 4.8.x?

Hello group,

We just made an upgrade from 4.8.0 to 4.8.2 and we are fighting with a very
strange issue. One of the PCI Express NICs got faulty and we had to replace
it. Now we have the two Servers not able to communicate with each other.
Each one says Active, Peer Dead. The 'eth2' are connected to different
switches but from the switches (via SVI interface) it is possible to ping
each CAS Server. But from the Server we cannot ping the peer Server...

It was working after a few reboots... But yesterday a new reboot was made
just to check the behavior and it happened again. We are not sure but we
think the problem was there before one of the NICs got faulty...

Any ideas ?


Thanks.

Make sure you double check your hostnames/SSL cert CN's and ensure
they are all lowercase before you upgrade. We were on 4.8.0 and moved
to 4.8.2 for Lion support and in the process hit this bug
(http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fe
tchBugDetails&bugId=CSCtq35120).
Ended up having to get our certs reissued and barely made it before
our students got back.
