You're using POLLING on your physical interfaces. Sometimes they go down and you lose your CARP interface.
OR For whatever reason you lose your CARP interface. Get the output from `dmesg` , see if you get logs saying your carp interface went down then back up, there are high chances it did. Post your dmesg Post your ifconfig Post your rc.conf Cheers ;) On 2/16/11 4:45 PM, Mickaël Canévet wrote: >> Every now and then I have a long delay with the vip that I don't have >> with the real IP or an alias... >> >> On Wed, 2011-02-16 at 13:22 +0100, Mickaël Canévet wrote: >>> Hi, >>> >>> I installed a redundant NAS with FreeBSD 8.2RC3 + Hast + ZFS + Carp. >>> >>> Each machine has its own IP address, and share a virtual IP with carp. >>> >>> When I launch 'showmount -e <one machine real ip>' from a linux client >>> or a freebsd client, I got my answer immediately (about 5ms).
