Just a few questions:
- what's your LB method ? RR or WRR are the only one working for UDP (no
sessions)
- Can you give us the ouptput of an ipvsadm -ln to check that you
effectively have both weight > 0
(and is 1 realserver located o the same host as the director ?)
- Are you proceeding the tests from different clients from different
networks ? There is server affinity in ipvs to "stick" client to
servers. In the same vein, can you check that there is efectively NO
traffic to the second resolver.
PS: I know some ISP use anycast for deploying farms of DNS resolvers
