Sounds like you are trying to use vrrp/keepalive, I am not sure how this will work.
What kind of environment do you have? In basic or advanced network with security groups will be tricky to get it working. -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!

CloudStack version 4.2.1, KVM We have the need for 2 VMs to use the same IP. They wont be using it at the same time. We have a tool that configures an IP on the interface of one VM and when the other cannot detect it, it configures an interface on the other for that same IP. I tried assigning a secondary IP to the VMs and I was able to for one, but the other wont let me because the other already has it assigned. Is the secondary IP not the correct way to do what I am wanting? Is there a better way or one that is supported? Many Thanks! -- Brent S.
