This is very similar to what HACMP (IBMs failover software for AIX) does too. In HACMPs wording what you call "pseudo IP" is called "service IP" and technically it is an IP alias, which is moved with the "resource group" (a group of mounted file systems, start-/stop-scripts for the application and said IP address(es)).

I hope this helps.
