Since you bought a support contract with RH I would call them on the phone and 
have them walk you through every detail.  Get a level-2 tech or better 
(escelate from the start) and find out all the juicy details.  A good starting 
point might be the mailing list archive, 
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-virtual-server&w=2&r=1&s=lvs.cf&q=b.  
This link has a search already entered for lvs.cf.  It has about 30 results, so 
it looks appropriate.
 
RE : Ciscos -- in my experience Cisco load-balancers suck.  Then again I 
haven't used anything but LVS since the local director days.  There's been no 
need.

Since this is a corporate environment we looked to a RedHat solution first, so 
we bough the RedHat Cluster Suite, which includes Piranha. I suppose if I knew 
more before I started this I might have tried Ultra Monkey first, or perhaps 
straight LVS code, but live and learn. I'm not even sure those would have been 
acceptable to my managers. They are getting pressure from our network services 
people that we should just buy a Cisco load balancer and mind our own business.

why stick to Piranha?  support?  then you need to file an enhancement
request with Red Hat (good luck :).  I'm actually a bit surprised that
WS includes Piranha at all, I can't find it in our channels (but I
didn't look very hard.)

we use Keepalived on WS 3.0, it works fine and is pretty easy to set up,
but it's without commercial support.  you can buy that from others if
you need it.
