Hi, Several Internet resources state that the weight of a realserver with the SH scheduler is half the number of its allowed connections. For example:
* http://kb.linuxvirtualserver.org/wiki/Source_Hashing_Scheduling, which links to an * archived mailing list thread starting at http://archive.linuxvirtualserver.org/html/lvs-users/2006-06/msg00001.html * http://www.austintek.com/LVS/LVS-HOWTO/HOWTO/LVS-HOWTO.ipvsadm.html#SH-scheduler Looking at the code, this might have been true in Linux 2.4, but seems to not be the case since 2.6.12 at least (where the Git history starts). On the other hand, SH weights must be kept low to fit the 256 buckets together since 76ad94fc (Linux 3.3), which is a difficult to handle conflict if the weights still represented connection limits. People with relevant knowledge, please comment on the above. People with the necessary power, please fix the documentation. -- Thanks, Feri _______________________________________________ Please read the documentation before posting - it's available at: http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ LinuxVirtualServer.org mailing list - lvs-users@LinuxVirtualServer.org Send requests to lvs-users-requ...@linuxvirtualserver.org or go to http://lists.graemef.net/mailman/listinfo/lvs-users
