Keepalived does not reinsert realservers

["Alexander Stolle" <alexlists@xxxxxx>]

Hi there,

Actually I am not sure if I'm right here with my keepalived questions.
Please point me to the right mailinglist if I'm not :)

I have a running keepalived setup with LVS NAT, 2 directors and 2
Realservers. Anything is fine so far. Keepalived removes a realserver, if
the realserver does not respond anymore. But if I restart the http service
on the realserver, keepalived does not re-insert the realserver into the
service. I need to reload keepalived manually. 

As far as I understood the docs, keepalived should do this automatically.
But I may also missed some option in the config. Could you please advise me
on howto track this down? 

The log does not tell much. The only supect log entries I get are the
following two lines. But I get them also when I reload/restart keepalived:

---
Jul 29 14:15:19 localhost Keepalived_vrrp: IPVS : Daemon has already run
Jul 29 14:15:19 localhost Keepalived_vrrp: IPVS : Daemon has already run
---


Thanks in advance!

Best, Alex
