Reran vipca - same errors.
Rebooted richmond1.
Still the same problem. The underlying symptom is that there is no eth0:1 defined.
Oracle RAC - Errors and Issues says:

- I got this issue resolved by specifying the default gateway to some dummy ip address (same subnet) in both of my virtual machines. Earlier i didnt specify any default gateway both in my virtual machines and got this error
