guys,
	I'm trying to test how my 10gR2 oracle cluster (3 nodes) on SuSe reacts to a network card hardware failure.
	I have eth0 and eth1 as my network cards, I took down eth0 (ifdown eth0) to see what would happen and
	I didn't get any reaction from the o2cb service. This is probably the correct behavior since my
 	/etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf uses eth1 as the connection channel?

	If I take down eth1 I suspect o2cb will eventually reboot the machine right? I'm not using any bonding.

	My concern is that when I took down eth0, I had a user logged into the instance and everything just "hung" for
	that user, until I manually took down the instance with "SRVCTL"... then the user connection failed over to
	a working instance.

	Anyway, just trying to get some general knowledge of the behavior of o2cb in order to understand
	my testing.
