Hi, We have a very simple configuration. The site needs to load balance one virtual server port 80 to port 80 on four real servers. Persistent connections are not required. We are currently setting up our LVS systems and have questions about the best practices for LVS.
The web servers run CentOS 5.1 and so that release has been installed on the two LVS systems. Centos 5.1 is not a requirement though. We have already tried to work with Piranha, but have found several conflicts between it and SELinux, to the point that SELinux has been turned off. Reviewing the mailing list, we find that Piranha may not be the best choice for maintaining LVS. If you were doing this, what software would you use? Piranha, UltraMonkey or Keepalived? Would you stay with CentOS 5.1 or back off to an earlier release? What are the tradeoffs between the various packages? What packet forwarding mechanism is the most stable? Note that we do not have an abundance of public IP addresses. Thanks for the time, Sid _______________________________________________ LinuxVirtualServer.org mailing list - [email protected] Send requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or go to http://lists.graemef.net/mailman/listinfo/lvs-users
