Hi!
So i finally got the two directors off of vmware, onto identical physical
(compaq ml370) machines with shiny new dualnic cards, oh i'm so happy.
Except that now all of a sudden, RDP connections that have been idle for
more than 5 minutes (the default ipvsadm --set timeout?) get disconnected.
And this is what i expected 2 years ago when i first put it into production.
But these timeouts never occurred. Clients could stay connected all day,
doing nothing, and LVS wouldn't drop the connection. Now it suddenly does
and even not with every connection, which is extra strange (to me). The
things that changed are:
- newer kernel
- physical hardware instead of vmware
- other NICs (dual intel 1 gig cards)
- channel bonding
The LVS configuration didn't change at all, just the heartbeat which is
(temporarily) sent over the same line as the RDP traffic.
Is there a logical explanation for this, or is LVS now working as intended
and i was just lucky all this time? :)
regards,
Sebastian
