IP takeover happens in the background and sometimes takes few seconds. Not 
even Nagios will notice the switching most especially if had an an normal 
interval say of 4 or 5 minutes. But, I think, it's still nice to monitor 
every private ip address of each node in the cluster. In this way, we'll 
know which one of the nodes failed. Is this a good idea? 

Thanks.
