[lvs-users] connection broken during two hours by using LVS as load balancer

[richard zhao <rich4tech@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, All
I developed a Client/Server program in which client will
establish a persistent connection with Server and then client and
server will maintain this connection for a very long time. this week, I
use LVS as load balancer. I found that the connection between Client
and Server are broken at the exact two hours. if I don't use the LVS,
the connection never break under the same environment. For this LVS, 
the packet forwarding method is gatewaying, the scheduler which I tried
is lblc, I also tried --persistent. they have same results.  Does
anyone have such experience? could anyone explain why that happened and
tell me how to avoid. thank you very much in advance.
