[lvs-users] Strange LVS behavior

Subject: [lvs-users] Strange LVS behavior

We recently moved to a new data center and both of our load balancers 
are now exhibiting some strange behavior. They each start out fine for 
about 30 minutes, balancing the number of connections (using wlc) and 
everything is good. But if I monitor the Active and Inactive connections 
I can see the number of both slowly start to drop until both are zero. 
Now it's still sending connections to the web servers, but it doesn't 
seem to be keeping track of them. And even though the load is relatively 
equal among both our web servers, after this point it sends connections 
to only one of the servers, and the other one is essentially idle. Any 
ideas about what is happening would be greatly appreciated. I've 
included my lvs.cf below:

serial_no = 282
primary = 208.66.46.160
primary_private = 10.200.200.1
service = lvs
backup_active = 1
backup = 208.66.46.161
backup_private = 10.200.200.2
heartbeat = 1
heartbeat_port = 539
keepalive = 6
deadtime = 18
network = direct
debug_level = NONE
rsh_command = ssh
monitor_links = 1
virtual www.example.com {
     active = 1
     address = 208.66.46.130 eth1:0
     vip_nmask = 255.255.255.128
     port = 80
     persistent = 72000
     expect = "Server is UP [ok]"
     use_regex = 1
     send_program = "/usr/local/bin/local_webcheck %h"
     load_monitor = uptime
     scheduler = wlc
     protocol = tcp
     timeout = 6
     reentry = 15
     quiesce_server = 0
     server web1 {
         address = 10.200.200.10
         active = 1
         weight = 5
     }
     server web2 {
         address = 10.200.200.11
         active = 1
         weight = 5
     }
}
