I called both stages of the script manually but at at time, when all was
working as expected and the routers where back to MASTER and BACKUP.

Looked like:

[root@acs-compute-5 ~]# /opt/cloud/bin/router_proxy.sh checkrouter.sh
169.254.1.178
Status: BACKUP

root@r-2595-VM:~# /opt/cloud/bin/checkrouter.sh
Status: BACKUP
