I assume you're doing this from client(s) on the x.x.110.x network.
I suspect your VIP is not hidden. What is the MAC address of the VIP
as seen by a client (run `arp -a`) that is always connecting to the
one realserver? It should be the MAC address of eth0 on the director.
I expect you'll find it's the MAC address of eth0 of the realserver.
when you're stuck on the one realserver, if you're having the arp problem,
the counters output from ipvsadm won't increment either.

it wasn't easy for any of us either ;-), but your confidence at
parties will increase immeasurably once you understand it.
