eth0:0 and eth0:1 are two interfaces at relatively high level - everywhere below they're one. It produces problems from time to time, but I don;t think it's your case. The thing is that, when it comes to the gateway, there may be only one default gateway in one routing table. More are possible to enter, but it won't work as expected.
This server have 3 different names on DNS, the ETH0 is for Server communication ( NFS, syslog, etc) the ETH0:1 have another hosname on DNS, this is for Client communication (SAP) and ETH0:2 (another hostname for SAP messages).
This is the reason that I need routing through this virtual IPs.
