Hi,
I have a design problem and was wondering if anyone had any bright ideas
about solving it. Using Ultramonkey I have 2 LVS-NAT servers in failover. I
want them to hold up to 20 virtual IPs for numerous HTTP/HTTPS apps that we
run (must be on 80/443). Behind the LVS are 6 apache/tomcat servers each
hosting up to 10 of the apps. Because of the use of SSL we port translate so
that each real server only has 1 real IP (using real IPs for historical
reasons). I need a load balanced persistent config... And I don't want to
have to make any changes (except default routes) to the web servers...
Yes, this is a painfully complicated configuration but it kind of works with
our hardware LB which needs replacing, hopefully with LVS.
Here is my first 1/10th scale attempt on our staging stack:
IP Virtual Server version 1.0.9 (size=65536)
Prot LocalAddress:Port Scheduler Flags
-> RemoteAddress:Port Forward Weight ActiveConn InActConn
TCP 10.1.1.81:80 wlc
-> 10.1.1.39:51580 Masq 1 0 0
-> 10.1.1.14:51580 Masq 1 0 0
TCP 10.1.1.46:80 wlc
-> 10.1.1.39:50580 Masq 1 0 0
-> 10.1.1.14:50580 Masq 1 0 0
TCP 10.1.1.46:443 wlc persistent 300 mask 255.255.255.0
-> 10.1.1.39:50543 Masq 1 0 0
-> 10.1.1.14:50543 Masq 1 0 0
TCP 10.1.1.81:443 wlc persistent 300 mask 255.255.255.0
-> 10.1.1.39:51543 Masq 1 0 0
-> 10.1.1.14:51543 Masq 1 0 0
This worked until I realised I need persistence between HTTP and HTTPS. Now
FWMARKS is a great idea, but I can't see how I can make it work in this
situation. I'd appreciate any advice.
Thanks,
Phil
