Folks,
We have posted Rev 1.0 of ILB design doc at
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/vnm/ILB . Although this is not the
final version, I urge folks to take a look at it and provide their
input. Also if you are interested in the project please subscibe to the

1. We use cookie based load-balancing, and find it far more useful than the LB
algorithms mentioned. Any chance of adding it?
7. I would like to see smarter draining - normally in conjunction with
cookie-based
load balancing (see my comment on section 1). Basically we have lots
of different
sessions coming in from the same IP address (because lots of users sit behind
the same proxy server).
The Phase 1 delivery of ILB project is limited to Layer 3 and 4 load
balancing. Thus we are not planning providing cookie based loadbalancing
or connection draining techniques in this phase.
4. You say regular users can view configuration and statistics. I
would expect to be
able to restrict that, as I wouldn't always want all users to be able
to view everything.
Are you suggesting the the default could be regular users unless the
admin customizes is otherwise? Can you explain why you would want to
restrict viewing?
5. Can you expand the rules a little. I assume that ping just verifies
that the address
is reachable; tcp checks that the port will accept a connection? Given
that a primary
use case is for web servers, why not have HTTP as a builtin health
check? I wouldn't
expect evry user to have to write their own health checks.
We will consider providing HTTP as a builtin healthcheck as a RFE post
Phase 1 delivery.
