Hi
It kind of defeats the object of the cluster to require a client to
connect to the same physical server in order to ensure a maintenance
of state - you both bypass the load balancing and the redundancy the
cluster provides.
This sort of information (state, session) should be maintained in a
service available to all machines in the cluster - a database, a
session service - each of which should support replication to ensure
redundancy once again.
If this is not feasible for your service, I don't believe LVS is what
you are looking for.

Hi,
I am considering building a LVS for the purposes of a computing cluster
but I am not sure it will work for our purposes because I cannot see how
LVS would allow a user to connect to the same machine from one session to
the next so that s/he could monitor her processes, etc. Is there a way
for LVS to do this? Thanks.
