Network setup fail#2

This is my 2nd attempt and ive failed...

I am trying to use 2 nics:

• nic1 - vps
• nic2 - cman / cluster management

nic1 plugs into a public 1gbps switch
nic2 plugs into a private switch.

Procedure:
nic1 stays the same...
create a cman1 bridge and assign it to eth1 /etc/network/interfaces
edit the /etc/hosts file point to private ip
reboot the box.


when this happens 90% of the vms work.... and there are a hand full that dont. When i check it out i can see that the vms that are not working can access the private interface and can ping all proxmox hosts. (this seems wrong)

i need to be able to split up vm data from cman data and it seems that proxmox does not work with this type of setup.

Any help or suggestion?
