Hi Joe,
 	I think I remember you from LVS days a long time 
ago.

 	The docs don't address your question directly 
because virtual services are independant. So if vs1 on node1 
drops out, but vs[2-5] are still OK on node1, you only need 
drop node1 from vs1. How you set that up will depend on the 
health checking package you use.
