HACMP IP Heartbeat

[spamly]

A couple of weeks ago I called IBM concerning an IP replacement event. I had swapped an IP address between adapters and was unable to swap back. Long story short, they were unable to fix the issue short of restarting my cluster services.

Part of troubleshooting the issue involved me changing modifying various files (clhosts, etc.) under IBMs direction. Here is where my problem lies. I believe that I've messed up something to do with an IP heartbeat.

When I start up my resource group, it will shut itself down after ~40 seconds. I guess this is hacmp configuration related. The misc volumes are mounted, IP address is configured, startup script finishes successfully, and then just when I tell the users they can log in, the shutdown script kicks off, IP address is deconfigured, and the volumes are dismounted.

I have the application running right now, but I had to manually configure the ip address, mount the volumes and kick off the startup script. Yeah, ugly. Lucky for me this particular resource group is defined as test.

Okay, my question... Which files control the IP heartbeat? I think this is the source of my problem. What should be in these files at a minimum? How can I tell for which event caused the resource group to shutdown?

Thanks in advance!
