The fix was to do two things:
1) rcmgr set ASEROUTING yes
2) run netsetup and configure ogated to run with no flags and restart
net services.
I restarted the ASE software ( /sbin/init.d/asemember restart )
I ran a continuous ping from my PC, failed over the services using asemgr
and BINGO !!
It timed out for a few seconds and then responded from the other cluster
member.
It seems that there is only a log entry if the service is set up as an NFS
service. I found the
info in my class training book.
Thanks to Jon Vaupel.

Subject: Problems routing after TruCluster failover
I am unable to route to one of my two TruClsuter V1.5 ASE members after
failing over to it. It appears that the Cisco router has member #1's MAC
address in it's arp cache, and doesn't get updated once the service is
failed-over to member #2.
How do I remedy this? The router doesn't flush it's arp entries very often -
several hours. It doesn't seem to make sense to flush the router every
minute.
Is there something I can add to the start script to advertise the arp update
so that the router will update it's arp cache?
Two AS1200 members running DU 4.0D and TruCluster Available Server V1.5.
Two NIC cards in each. both used - no private, yet for ASE.
Please advise.
Thanks,
