I am reading the HACMP docs and the goal is to run a rotating standby
configuration for our Oracle database.  If server A goes down server B will
mount the EMC file system and mount the database.  Obviously all new
connections get directed towards the server B.  My confusion comes from
understanding how the I.P. addresses are going to be configured.  It looks
like one box can literally assume the I.P. of the other box in the cluster.
My trouble is box B is also running another application that will fail over
to box A.  Of course it needs it's own IP address so the clients can access
the application.  I am sure there are various possibilities and I would be
interested in knowing if any of this does not sound technically feasible
from someone with HACMP experience.

Thanks,
Ethan Post
