We are doing load-balancing for http with DR/WLC and had a persistency of

3 hours we ran into a strange problem:
After some time "ipvsadm -Lc" does not show any connections, while all
connections go to only one real server (the other real server is not
contacted any longer).
people running long persistence times report weird stuff
like this. Since it's hard to do experiments with a setup
that takes 8hrs (or whatever) to do a test, we've never
found out whether the problems are unique to that user or a
bug.
You don't tell us how many connections are involved
(millions, half a dozen?). There are explanations for what
you see. Your clients could be coming in from an AOL like
proxy and all be directed to the same realserver. You'd need
to connect from clients with different IPs to check this
out.
Otherwise I have no idea what the problem is
