Just trying to get the following straight in my thick skull :-).
If I have two real servers with 50 active connections each, using wlc
both with weight=1 (http)
I change 1 real server to weight=0
Most Active connections move to the other server straight away so I get
rs1 : 20 connections
rs2 : 80 connections
Now I physicaly switch off rs1
and I still get
rs1 : 20 connections
rs2 : 80 connections
later after about 5-10 mins all rs1 connections get dropped...
Question 1 :
As HTTP is stateless is it safe to switch off a real server once weight
has been set to zero ? (after waiting about 1 min for current page
downloads to complete. I assume the users will get a stall otherwise.)
Question 2 :
Whats the difference between an active connection and an inactive one ?
Does it just depend on TCP timeouts ?
