I'm not sure what you are really doing, but am guessing. You can use multiple IP addresses to get between ER nodes. Just configure them in the same way that you would configure an HDR pair as an ER node.

ER uses the group name to establish communication between nodes and there can be multiple ports for a single group....

ername group - - i=1port1 ...... g=ernameport2 ...... g=ername Madison Pruet

Can Informix work with Virtual IP's ?

We will have a primary and secondary server, we have different peripheral
devices that rely on the primary IP address. If we have to switch from primary
to secondary we think this is where the VIP might come into play to assist in
less down time, but not real sure at this point.

We will be using Enterprise Replication and not HDR between primary and
secondary database servers.

Thanks,
