    I have two nodes in my HA config, Main and Aux. I can start my application(oracle), varyonvg and all is well. But when I fail the resource group over to the Aux node, the Main is left with two default routes. How could the failover be adding a new default route?

    My test went as;

    Rebooted both nodes
    Verified network config, everything was OK
    Started HA on main, automatically brought on resource group
    Started HA on AUX
    Verified network config, everything was OK
    Used smitty to move resource group to AUX
    Verified network config - OK on AUX, two default routes on MAIN, both on en1, the admin card, which is not in the HA config.
    Used smitty to move resource group back to MAIN
    Verified network config - two default routes on both nodes, on en1, the admin card
