Just start tcpdump -n proto ICMP on your LVS director.

tcpdump showed a large number of destination port unreachable messages.

This doesn't seem to make sense as we have a virtual service with a real
server on port 80.  I thought these messages would be sent out if there
were no real servers on the virtual service.  Why would these messages be
sent out?
