This SYN will have srcIP equal to RIP. Client will then respond to this RIP and

Director knows nothing about RS sending a SYN, and might forward packets to
wrong RS.

I see no reason to use LVS in this scenario. LVS is for applications where the
request is initiated from the client not the server.
