Hi
Mike
I'm using LVS-NAT with persistence
controlled by ldirectord. I've found that the "quiescent=" line in
ldirectord.cf controls the behaviour you are looking for. If
"quiescent=no" then when a realserver fails it's LVS entries are removed from
the table and clients immediately failover to an alternate server. If
"quiescent=yes" then when a realserver fails it's entries remain in the LVS
tables but the weight is set to 0 and clients will continue to try to connect
to that server until the persistence expires. The default setting (on my
installation) was "yes" and I had to change this to get the behaviour I
wanted.
Regards,
Peter.
