Hello,

I'm still fairly new with LVS. I've been reading the docs, but cannot seem to find what I'm looking for. I'll apologize in advance if this is just a rediculously stupid question, but here's tryin'.


It's a perfectly valid question to ask here.

Is there any way to implement my own scheduling algorithm?


Yes.

I'd like to make something based on load averages and a few custom variables which would be gathered by querying our proprietary application.


You might want to check out feedbackd:

http://ozlabs.org/~jk/projects/feedbackd/

Or if you want to get your hands dirty doing some kernel hacking, you might read up on:

HTH and best regards,

Har, perfect.  I think this is something to go with.

Thanks for the time and suggestions
