After failover, why VIP is left in primary server?

["Sachie Shinohara" <sshinohara@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, I need help.

 

I have an trouble with VIP.

I'm using linux-2.2.18 kernel, ipvs-1.0.2-2.2.18, and piranha-0.4.17-6.

 

In failover test, ethernet was weird.

 

I down the pulse deamon in primary Piranha server, then secondary

Piranha server started.

But, this thing happend.

Primary server had still VIP(eth0:1, eth1:1), and secondary server had

same VIP addresses as primary had. In this situation I could ping to

both IP, eth0:1&eth1:1, and even more virtual web server had been

working fine.

 

One thing I noticed was when stopping piranha, pulse was sending this

message. 'pulse[****] : running command "/sbin/ifconfig" "eth1:1" "up"'

and 'pulse[****] : running command "/sbin/ifconfig" "eth0:1" "up".'

I am sure this message ran on stopping piranha.

 

Is this thing normal? If so, I want to know why.

 

Please help me.
