Failover failed

Hi,

I have a cluster with two nodes, lynndie and sivits. Sivits has been
falling over a lot recently - require reboots every other day. It's a new
machine, so I expect to get it repaired. I'm not in a great hurry, because
failover with wackamole seems to be working fine....

Until now. Lynndie just fell over, and no failover happened. Spread and
wackamole configurations are identical on both hosts, as are hardware
configurations.

As Lynndie came up, Sivits got all the IP addresses for the cluster, but
has since dropped some. Lynndie hasn't aquired any. Spread logs show that
Lynndie did join the spread group on boot, and Sivits logs show that
*something* happened at the time Lynndie broke, but not that any member
left the group.

Wackamole logged nothing on either host until I rebooted Lynndie.

Does anyone know what could cause this kind of asymmetry.
