Thanks to Jim Lola and Andreas Maagdenberg:

First define the aliases you want in the /etc/hosts-file

then go to the file /etc/clu_alias.config (on both machines)

you need to add lines for each alias:

/usr/sbin/cluamgr -a rpri=1,selw=1,selp=2,join,alias=....

You can define with rpri which machine really holds the alias.
If you make rpri=2 on node A, that node will hold the alias.

After you're done on both machien restart the alias-daemon:

# /sbin/init.d/clu_alias stop
# /sbin/init.d/clu_alias start


Original question:

> I'm replacing an old server (single machine) with a cluster of 2
> DS10s. My old server had 3 NICs on 3 subnets, each NIC had an IP address
> on the subnet. Each of my DS10s has 3 NICs and I've installed tru64 5.1
> and the tru Cluster 5.1 following the installation instructions. Each of
> my cluster members has all 3 NICs up on the 3 subnets, but the cluster
> itself has been assigned 1 IP address on one of the subnets. I can easily

> (its IP address) from a different subnet, I notice that it takes 2 hops to
> get to the cluster -- it has to go through the router for the subnet the
> client machine is on. How can I assign additional IP addresses to the
> cluster, so that the cluster can have an IP address on each of the
> subnets?
