Thanks Andrew. Let me look at that, I didn't find it. I believe this issue is within the same sub-net, but now I'm not sure. When I started testing I did the ping from a jumpbox, and the other GG system is obviously in a different subnet.

It might be related to this bug:
Bug 13440962 - Different subnet failed to connect to vip after restart vip [ID 13440962.8]
This is a regression fix for problem introduced by patch 11069846. The change in this patch (patch 13440962) fixes a problem with 4 extra bytes in the GARP message and removes an extra unicast GARP packet to the router.
Rediscovery Notes:
After upgrading to 11.2.0.3, after vip failover, the ip address is
not pingable from a different subnet on Linux.
(This problem is seen only on Linux)
Workaround
After vip failover, run command
/sbin/arping -U -c 3 -I <public NIC for vip> <vip ip address> to update the ARP table of router.

When I relocate the VIP via the resource (e.g. crsctl relocate resource -f gg_app...) the VIP shows up on the new node, but cannot be reached. If I do an "arping" then the vip starts replying. We believe this is a network type thing, but the network group is wondering what Oracle using to advertise the VIP. If I don't arping then eventually it starts responding. Has anyone seen this type of issue (not finding anything on google or MOS)?
