It might be worth you asking the questions of the keepalived list also
(noting that you have be a subscriber to post). I know that although
there's an overlap between this list and that one, it's not a 100%
match.
Personally speaking I have no experience (yet) of NECP but it certainly
looks like an interesting idea - if the following became possible then
we'd have an all-singing, all-dancing load
balancing/high-availability/healthchecker management package...
1. keepalived manages the "master" server
2. "agent" on realserver connects to keepalived master
3. keepalived marshals agent into LVS grouping appropriately
4. keepalived adds agent into healthcheck subsystem
5. keepalived emails admins to announce new server
Hrm, that looks like a very scalable system to me, especially as it
would mean not having to continually restart keepalived to make config
changes such as adding in a realserver to a cluster.
I hope I've understood this properly, as that gets my vote :)
