hi,

responsilibity by ClusterIP is expressed in terms os hash values.  
Hash values are deducted from the # of the clone in  the custer. So if one 
agent is the first clone it will get hash 1, ...

if one node dies this agent is started on an other node, which means that the 
it also gets the responsibility for the second hash. for more info see my 
articles in German Linuxmagazin last year. links to the articles are on 
www.multinet.de -> artikel und veröffentlichungen.

beware that more than one ressource can run one one node!

You are welcome for more  questions.

Michael.
