better suggestion: use MultiNICB

Have a problem where a MultiNICA resource does not recognise a physical cable
pull to failover the NIC. It registers when I down or unplumb the primary
interface and brings it back up as expected. However when I physically pull
the cable, nothing! All that happens is the monitor resource times out. Solaris
sees the NIC go down but VCS does squat!

Running 3.5P3 on Solaris 8 on a V890 with gigaswift 4 port NICs, primary
on port 0 of 1 NIC (ce0), secondary on port 0 of the other (ce4).

Any suggestions??????
