unexpected election and recovery

Hi all,

First of all I have to say that we'er using an old version of keepalived
- 1.1.19

I have a setup with two directors primary/secondary. A problem just
recently started to happen (after of about 2 years of running without
problems) where the primary receives lowere prio adverts, election is
forced, the two directors fight over who's the master for a while and
eventually the situation comes back to primary/secondary setup as
initially configured (and intended) however one of the VIPs configured
is totaly dead. The physical servers behind it are all alive a
functioning but the VIP itself is unpingable..

I did find some post around the Internet with similar issue but never
with any resolution.

I can post configs if required or any other details if required. I just
thought that this may be a well known issue?

I know that I should upgrade.. and it will happen, however I'd like to
understand this issue and also upgrade involves building, testing etc so
for an immediate fix? 

Please, let me know if anybody has any suggestions/info

thanks
