Thanks.
Something is different. What does tcpdump say when the traffic starts
slowing? Are there repeat requests or packetloss? Is there anything
in
(e.g.) ifconfig that indicates bad network setup? Maybe your NICs
somewhere
are in auto and the switch is full duplex? I don't think this is an
LVS
problem.
I do see a fair number of SACKs, which may indicate packetloss. I don't
see any errors, collisions, or anything else indicative of issues
there. NICs and switch are both in auto and negotiated 100mbit full
duplex with no problems. tcpdump doesn't show anything out of the
ordinary, throughput just drops. running tcpdump on the external
interface and on the internal interface show almost, but not quite,
identical numbers of packets being examined, which is good, I guess.
My current guess is that it's the uplink from the switch the external
interface of the LVS machine is plugged into to the edge router. I say
this because scping from the LVS machine to another machine on the same
switch is very fast (80mbit/s or more), but scping from the LVS machine
to a machine on the internet is much slower.
So, it seems likely that I've wasted a few K of storage on these
emails. But it's helped, and it was worth it for the advice on the
realservers->VIP issue alone.
I'll let you know tomorrow if I have any luck with cable rearrangement.
Thanks again,
Ed
