Hello:
I am thinking of using LVS to set up a cluster with 2 machines
each located in a different city for geographic redundancy.
do you want two realservers, each in a different place, or
two directors each in a different place?
Will LVS work correctly for load balancers on different
subnets?
you'll have to arrange for the two different locations to
accept packets for the VIP (or packets to the URL).
Will the load balancers be able to communicate
in order to detect failures and hand the workload to
the other?
yes. you just have to set up the routing.
