Take a close look at the node names listed above. Your first list has 
.srv suffixes, your second list has .atm suffixes, and the actual node 
name reported by rabbit has no suffix. To get things to work, all three 
need to line up.

Also, the node names in the cluster config should be wrapped in *single* 
quotes, not double quotes.

Matthias.
