Hi
I was just wondering why all documentation and HOWTO's say
that it isn't possible to run direct routing with HPUX as
realservers.
I hope that's not what the documentation says (let me know
if it is). HPUX doesn't honor the -noarp flag (or it didn't
back when we tried it last) in the same way that linux-2.2+
doesn't.
I just set up an alias on lo0 and lo0 doesn't arp and so
far I haven't had any problems with my tests.
You can set up an LVS with all the realservers arp'ing and
it will work as long at the router gets the MAC address of
the director each time. My first LVS was like this and I
didn't realise I hadn't solved the arp problem at all. I was
just lucky.
Am I missing something?
can't tell.
Can you turn arp'ing back on, show that the router gets the
MAC address of the realservers, and have the LVS stop
working?
