SYMPTOMS
If one Network Name resource depends on two IP address resources that are in two different subnets in a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 cluster, the following symptoms occur:
 * Only one record for one IP address is registered in the Domain Name System (DNS) server when the resource is brought online.
 * The two network adapters register DNS names to the same DNS server.

For example, you may have the following configuration:
 * IP1 Address resource = 192.168.0.40 / 255.255.255.0
 * IP2 Address resource = 210.210.210.0 / 255.255.255.0
 * Network Name resource = NetName

In this configuration, NetName depends on IP1 and on IP2. However, only IP2 is registered in the DNS server.
