It has come to my attention that if the mistake is made to attempt to bring up a CT with an IP address that is already being used elsewhere the following message is displayed:

Adding IP address(es): x.x.x.x
arpsend: x.x.x.x is detected on another computer : 00:MA:CA:DD:RE:SS
vps-net_add WARNING: arpsend -c 1 -w 1 -D -e x.x.x.x eth0 FAILED

The CT is then started, and the IP address in question is still assigned.

The network is available from inside of the newly started CT, but obviously the external network is confused.

Should vzctl instead fail and not start the CT if this error is detected?

vzctl version 3.0.22
2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.028stab053.6
