Hi there,

I have configured lvs - nat using pulse, nanny, ipvsadm, etc. I am using kernel 2.2.14 on red hat 6.2

Now my doubt is as follows:-
I get continous http requests to my set of servers in production. Now I cache every request that comes to each of the servers. If another request comes there-after I match the cache entry and deliver the response for that request in order to avoid the request to go through the database. Please note that I get nearly 1.5 to 2 million requests per day for each server.

Now if I configure lvs NAT with persistance, the requests coming from one IP will be going to the same server until the time parameter for persistance configured is reached.

Hence if I implement lvs with or with out persistance, there will be heavy load imbalance and lvs will work only for fail over concept but not for load balancing. Please correct me if Iam wrong. So, how do I implement this concept in lvs as Iam completely fascinated by the way it works.

any suggestions???

Regards
Rajesh
