Hi Steve,

It was a configuration problem. Thanks to Fabio. He helped me with
proper interface/openais configuration and with that I am able to bring
up openais on IPv6 interface. Copying the configuration details below
for future reference for anybody who wants to run openais on IPv6.

[root at lab-control ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
IPV6INIT=yes
IPADDR=192.168.90.47
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.90.1
IPV6ADDR=2001:41a8:604:1::121/64
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=no
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=yes
PEERDNS=yes

[root at lab-control ~]# cat whitetank/conf/openais.conf

	interface {
		ringnumber: 0

		mcastaddr:   FF01:0:0:0:0:0:0:1
		mcastport: 5405
	}
}
