Thank you for the Prompt reply.
I have one more question.sorry it might be silly. but am wondering after
noticed this.
 I made that interface down <NO carrier> but how the ip address(Public) &
VIP (IP resource) are still in primary node.
If i made interface down, public IP address also have to go down right?

Regards,
