[ClusterLabs] Two ethernet adapter within same subnet causing issue on Qdevice

I agree,

it's more of a routing problem.
Actually a static route should fix the issue.

The question is, how much it is really qdevice problem and if so, if 
there is really something we can do about the problem.

Qdevice itself is just using standard connect(2) call and standard TCP 
socket. So from qdevice point of view it is really kernel problem where 
to route packet to reach qnetd.

It is clear that ifdown made qdevice to lost connection with qnetd 
(that's why ip changed from ens192 to ens256) and standard qdevice 
behavior is to try reconnect. Qdevice itself is not binding to any 
specific address (it is really just a client) so after calling 
connect(2) qdevice reached qnetd via other (working) interface.

So I would suggest to try method recommended by Andrei (add host route).
