Select your network. If you select one of your tcpip networks, you
can set it public or private. However if you selected your serial
network(rs232), there's no attribute to set as it is private.

On another note, a couple questions for you. Have you tried starting
your cluster? Has it halted the system? I've got a p630 connected to
an H80, both with AIX 5.2 ml03 & HACMP 5.1 plus additional APARS and
my setup currently halts on both servers. Nothing special about my
setup, rs232 network, public tcp network, shared disk. Oracle is
involved but no RAC. I'm currently working with development to
determine the problem. I'd be interested to hear if you've
successfully started your cluster yet.

HTH,
Pete's
