 Hi, I'm new to the LVS, and didn't find information about the 
possibility of running realservers on OpenVZ virtual machines with 
director in LVS-DR mode, has someone tried this setup? I'll run LVS 
 
I don't know but it should be as simple as assigning the VIPs to the 
venet* devices and set the appropriate arp_* flags in proc-fs and you're 
done, provided OpenVZ does the NIC HW abstraction right. 
 director on dedicated machines (failover setup), but want to run the 
realservers on OpenVZ virtual machines distributed by several real 
hardware servers, in order to have easy maintenance, due to its ability 
to migrate virtual machines. My doubt is because both LVS and OpenVZ 
patches the kernel and LVS-DR seems to need patching also on the real 
servers, so I imagine that some conflict might arise.
 
LVS has no need for any kernel patches, neither for the director nor for 
the real servers. 
Let us know how it works. Thanks,
Roberto Nibali, ratz
