I guess mainly I'm concerned that by having this "active/active"
configuration I may cause some problems.  Looking at the documentation this
paragraph notes:

When a backend node status changes by failover etc.., watchdog notifies the

What is the "inconsistency", specifically?  I'm not opposed to using
watchdog per se, I just don't want to have to manage a vip when I can use
the functionality included in my consul cluster.
