Jay,
Try switching from WLC to WRR? (I'm guessing that you are using WLC).

> Server 1 - 25000 active conn. - 1500 inactive conn.
> Server 2 - 35000 active conn. - 1000 inactive conn.
> Server 3 - 20000 active conn. - 500 inactive conn.

> Server 2 fails. Instead of seeing all the traffic split between the remaining
> real_servers, we see it all clump over to the same server
>
> Server 1 - 25000 active conn. - 1500 inactive conn.
> Server 2 - failed
> Server 3 - 55000 active conn. - 1500 inactive conn.
>
> Now, server 3 falls over and dies due to having too many connections on it
> and becoming overloaded.
>
> We've seen this behavior consistently in all of our keepalived installations
> (20 servers or so? Median of about 20 virtual_servers each), and I was
> curious if this is configurable behavior, or even expected.

> Thanks!
