I'd note that IPaddr2 agent attempts to bring the network interface
(back) up if not already on start so this appears, perhaps against
one's liking and expectations (if putting it down is considered
a sufficiently big hammer to observe a service failover),
as a magic "self-healing" :-)

Would "rmmod <interface-driver-module>" be a better hammer of choice?
