I think my statement misled you to the problem of healthcheck. My problem is,
since the VIP is doing forwarding, then if the realserver is down but the
healthcheck think it hasn't go down (because the healthcheck checks, let's
say every 500ms), will the connection be lost (i.e. the client need to
refresh the browser)? I'm not an expert in this, so the answer might be so
obvious. Is there anyway (other than changing the healthcheck to 10ms or
less, or having the client to refresh the browser) to make the director
forward it to another realserver?
Thank you very much.
