[lvs-users] LVS director suddenly stops forwarding connections.

[Terry Inzauro <tinzauro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

List,

I've got a LVS director running on a pair of clustered (with 
corosync/pacemaker) compaq dl380's.  Until today, all seemed to
be working great.  Now, the active director periodically stops forwarding 
connections to the realservers.

If I migrate the ldirectord to the other node, forwarding resumes.
