[Linux-HA] Configuring a single IP address

I have a system which has three gigabit network interfaces,
and a single 10gigabit interface.
The 10G interface will be labelled eth3

On resource takeover, I ould like the eth3 interface to be configured
with a single IP address,   192.168.32.200/255.255.254.0

The IPaddr  script would seem to be the right one for this - however it
does not have an option for configuring a specific interface?



Maybe making this clearer, I have an HS pair of two NFS fileservers.
On failover, I would like the IP Address of the 10G interface to move
over between the two servers.
I think it would be cleaner to have a single IP address move over - ie
to have th einterface up but not configured on the secondary host,
rather than have IPs up and have an alias configured.
