Hi. My company is using lvs. We're actually using RedHat's
pulse/lvsd/piranha. I know that this list isn't specifically about
pulse and lvsd, but I thought that there might be some interest in what
we're doing. We've noticed a few issues with pulse and lvsd. We have
at least one local patch, and plan on making several more.
I cribbed and slightly modified an internal wiki page about our proposed
changes and bugs.
In particular there is at least one verified bug in lvsd (mis-indexed
re-read of config file), some missing features (as the documentation
implies, or is missing - pulse re-reading the config file, doesn't pay
attention to the status of it's child lvsd), nanny doesn't check it's
arguments carefully and may unexpectedly exit etc.
For a full detailed description of all the issues we've found, and for
our proposed solutions, please see:
http://clift.org/fred/lvs/lvs.html
Are there other known issues with these programs that we might likely
trip over? In particular are there nanny options that currently are
arguably non-valid parameters (cause immediate nanny exit) - for
example, a timeout of 0 is one. Are there others?
Anyway, I'd appreciate anyone's feedback on our proposed changes
Thanks.
