Issue was fixed by rebooting (sigh). I was actual wrong above at first the VIP was answering, but later on it stopped responding completely(no idea why) and then traffic was being caught by another vip (0.0.0.0/0 vip).

 

On route domains, i always roll with a 1:1 mapping of route domains to partitions. Depending where i am on TMSH (/Common/ or somewhere else) the route domain id might or might not be there, but because of the 1:1 mapping i never specific directly route domain id's in addresses thus i never have that issue :).
