We are having some issues where when using a catch-all persistence VIP for
an FTP service and not any of the ftp ip_vs kernel modules. Sometimes when
a client sends the request to the data port it lands on the wrong backend
FTP server instead of the original control sessions backend.  We have
multiple director nodes in an active/active setup using anycast/BGP to get
traffic to the nodes. So it is possible and even likely that the second
connection to the data port would land on a different director node than
the control session.  We do have session syncing working between these
nodes.

Is the persistence template state synced between nodes?  Or, does each node
create its own persistence template and could hash to a different backend
than the other nodes?  We are using WRR right now for the lb algorithm.

We are running on Centos 7.6 kernel 3.10.0-957

Example of our configuration:

-A -t vip:0 -s wrr -p 600
-a -t vip:0 -r realip_1:0 -i -w 1
-a -t vip:0 -r realip_2:0 -i -w 1
-a -t vip:0 -r realip_3:0 -i -w 1
-a -t vip:0 -r realip_4:0 -i -w 1

Thank you,

Phillip Moore
