Thanks very much for all your assistance Ian, the problem was with the network. We introduced a second switch into the stack and it seems like it was our bond interface to the switch that caused this particular issue. We were using bond mode 5 since that works for us elsewhere and did not think that this could be the problem since we were seeing the arp-replies reach the host bridge interface. As per Xen recommendations I tried mode 7 but that too did not work. Once configured to use bond mode 1 (active-backup) this all started working again. Apologies for the run-around, the false accusations and also the cross-posting, have a few hours before going live with this platform and was under a fair amount of pressure. All good now!! :) Regards, Gavin > >
