Hello,
Under Linux (Cups) you can place an interface driver in:
/etc/cups/interfaces
.. which allows you to intercept printouts to a certain printer and then carry on with the printer.
Is there a similar function under AIX?

UCARP(8) System Manager's Manual UCARP(8)
NAME
ucarp -- Automatic IP failover
SYNOPSIS
ucarp [-i, --interface=INTERFACE] [-s, --srcip=IPADDRESS]
[-v, --vhid=VHID] [-p, --pass=PASSWORD] [-o, --passfile=PASSFILE]
[-P, --preempt] [-n, --neutral] [-a, --addr=IPADDR] [-h, --help]
[-b, --advbase=SECS] [-k, --advskew=SKEW] [-u, --upscript=SCRIPT]
[-d, --downscript=SCRIPT] [-r, --deadratio=RATIO] [-z, --shutdown]
[-B, --daemonize] [-f, --facility=FACILITY] [-x, --xparam PARAM]
[-S, --ignoreifstate] [-M, --nomcast]
DESCRIPTION
ucarp allows a pair of hosts to share common IP addresses in order to provide automatic failover of an address from one machine to another.
It is a portable userland implementation of the secure and patent-free Common Address Redundancy Protocol, (CARP), OpenBSD's alternative to
VRRP.
OPTIONS
ucarp supports the following command line options:
-i INTERFACE --interface=INTERFACE
The network interface to bind to.
-s IPADDRESS --srcip=IPADDRESS
The persistent source address, (real IP), associated with this interface.
-v VHID --vhid=VHID
The id of the virtual server [1-255].
-p PASSWORD --pass=PASSWORD
The shared password, (this gets encrypted and is not sent in the clear).
-o PASSFILE --passfile=PASSFILE
File to read the shared password from. The file specified should contain the password on the first line of the file.
-P --preempt
Turn on preemptive failover. This causes an instance of ucarp to assume master status right immediately.
-n --neutral
Do not run the downscript on startup when the initial state is backup.
-a IPADDRESS --addr=IPADDRESS
The IP address of the virtual server.
-h --help Display a brief summary of the command line options.
-b SECONDS --advbase=SECONDS
Interval in seconds that advertisements will occur, (defaults to 1 second).
-k SKEW --advskew=SKEW
Advertisement skew [1-255], (defaults to 0).
-u COMMAND --upscript=COMMAND
Specifies the command to run after ucarp has successfully become master, the interface name gets passed as an argument. Typi-
cally a script used to bring up the virtual address, log the result, add routes, clear arp cache entries, etc.
-d COMMAND --downscript=COMMAND
Specifies the command that is run after ucarp has transitioned to the backup state, the interface name is passed as an argument.
This is typically a script used to bring down the virtual interface, log the action, remove routes, etc.
-r RATIO --deadratio=RATIO
Ratio used by the backup to determine how long to wait for an unresponsive master before considering it dead.
-z --shutdown
Use of this command causes the command specified by the -d argument to be invoked when ucarp shuts down.
-B --daemonize
Causes ucarp to detach from the terminal and run in the background as a daemon.
-f --facility
Set the syslog facility, defaults to daemon.
-x PARAMETER --xparam=PARAMETER
Specify an extra parameter to be supplied to the up/down scripts.
-S --ignoreifstate
Ignore unplugged network cables. This option is useful when ucarp nodes are connected with a crossover cable. Without this option
the master will transition to backup when the other node is powered down, as it no longer has a link (NO-CARRIER).
-M --nomcast
Use broadcast instead of multicast advertisements.
EXAMPLES
A host with a real IP of 10.1.1.10 configured to be the master in a preemptive configuration with a virtual IP of 10.1.1.252.
ucarp -i eth0 -s 10.1.1.10 -v 10 -p secret -a 10.1.1.252
--upscript=/etc/vip-up.sh --downscript=/etc/vip-down.sh -P
The backup might be configured something like this.
ucarp -i eth0 -s 10.1.1.11 -v 10 -p secret -a 10.1.1.252
--upscript=/etc/vip-up.sh --downscript=/etc/vip-down.sh
A machine with a real IP of 192.168.1.19 is the preferred master for a virtual IP of 10.1.12.7, broadcasts are sent every 5 seconds.
ucarp -b 5 -s 192.168.1.19 -v 27 -p badpass -a 10.1.12.7
-u /etc/vip-up.sh -d /etc/vip-down.sh -z
The hot standby with an IP of 192.168.1.20 uses the following command, (note the advskew of 50 putting it at a disadvantage and making the
first machine preferred).
ucarp -b 5 -k 50 -s 192.168.1.20 -v 27 -p badpass -a 10.1.12.7
-u /etc/vip-up.sh -d /etc/vip-down.sh -z
SIGNALS
Sending the ucarp process a SIGUSR1 will have it log a status line to syslog, eg "Sep 13 12:59:56 localhost ucarp[2654]: [INFO] MASTER on
eth0 id 1" or "Sep 13 13:00:25 localhost ucarp[2644]: [INFO] BACKUP on eth0 id 1"
Sending the ucarp process a SIGUSR2 will cause it to demote itself from master to backup, pause 3 seconds, then proceed as usual to listen
for other masters, and promote itself if necessary. This could be useful if you wish another node to take over master.
