<div dir="ltr">Hi all, This is my first mail to this mailing list.First of all sorry for writing such a big mail.I am facing problem while implementing Piranha Load balancer on RHEL4U6 for my two oracle 11i application server running on linux. Oracle Real server details Instance Name - test url's - 1 . <a href="http://dev.xxx.com:8004">dev.xxx.com:8004</a> 2 . <a href="http://uat.xxx.com:8004">uat.xxx.com:8004</a> Architecture - Services installed on dev are 1. Database Server 2.Concurrent Processing Server 3. Administration Server 4. Forms Server 5. Web server And services installed on uat are 1.Web server 2.Form server Note: Form server running on port 9004 on both hosts. Piranha details eth0 <a href="http://192.168.23.2">192.168.23.2</a> --- external physical ip eth0:1 <a href="http://192.168.23.3">192.168.23.3</a> ---EXTERNAL VIP eth2 <a href="http://192.168.17.125">192.168.17.125</a> --internal physical ip eth2:1 <a href="http://192.168.17.121">192.168.17.121</a> --INTERNAL VIP Client Network: <a href="http://192.168.23.0/24">192.168.23.0/24</a> Real Server Network: <a href="http://192.168.17.0/24">192.168.17.0/24</a> Client are accessing oracle application using VIP of piranha by <a href="http://192.168.23.3:8004/">http://192.168.23.3:8004/</a> Real server ips, hostname and gateway <a href="http://192.168.17.16">192.168.17.16</a> <a href="http://dev.xxx.com">dev.xxx.com</a> having gateway of piranha Internal vip <a href="http://192.168.17.121">192.168.17.121</a> <a href="http://192.168.17.17">192.168.17.17</a> <a href="http://uat.xxx.com">uat.xxx.com</a> having gateway of piranha Internal vip <a href="http://192.168.17.121">192.168.17.121</a> my ipvsadm rule is like below <a href="http://192.168.23.3:8004">192.168.23.3:8004</a> ---->><a href="http://192.168.17.16:8004">192.168.17.16:8004</a> <a href="http://192.168.23.3:8004">192.168.23.3:8004</a> ---->><a href="http://192.168.17.17:8004">192.168.17.17:8004</a> For me load balancing is working fine for <a href="http://192.168.23.3:8004/">http://192.168.23.3:8004/</a> . But once i logged in when ever i tried to browse any Oracle Application Forms then it is giving me error "Failed to connect to the server" <a href="http://uat.xxx.com:9004">uat.xxx.com:9004</a> Note: Form server running on port 9004 on my both oracle application sever when ever i click on any forms it is trying to connect to <a href="http://uat.xxx.com">uat.xxx.com</a>[which is aliased to the VIP of piranha that is <a href="http://192.168.23.3">192.168.23.3</a> in my client host entry] so it is clearly trying to connect to <a href="http://192.168.23.3:9004">192.168.23.3:9004</a> but there is no service or ipvsadm rule on that vip of piranha for that 9004 port. Note: Telnet to Form server on both oracle apps server is working on 9004 from piranha server. So i created the ipvsadm rules on piranha on same vip on 9004 port like below. <a href="http://192.168.23.3:9004">192.168.23.3:9004</a> ---->><a href="http://192.168.17.16:9004">192.168.17.16:9004</a> <a href="http://192.168.23.3:9004">192.168.23.3:9004</a> ---->><a href="http://192.168.17.17:9004">192.168.17.17:9004</a> But i am getting below error on my syslog ################################################################################ Jul 21 20:25:38 testlvs nanny[5064]: starting LVS client monitor for <a href="http://192.168.23.3:9004">192.168.23.3:9004</a> Jul 21 20:25:38 testlvs nanny[5065]: starting LVS client monitor for <a href="http://192.168.23.3:9004">192.168.23.3:9004</a> Jul 21 20:25:43 testlvs pulse[5040]: gratuitous lvs arps finished Jul 21 20:25:47 testlvs nanny[5065]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.16:9004">192.168.17.16:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:25:47 testlvs nanny[5064]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.17:9004">192.168.17.17:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:25:53 testlvs nanny[5061]: making <a href="http://192.168.17.16:8004">192.168.17.16:8004</a> available Jul 21 20:25:53 testlvs nanny[5065]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.16:9004">192.168.17.16:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:25:53 testlvs nanny[5059]: making <a href="http://192.168.17.124:80">192.168.17.124:80</a> available Jul 21 20:25:53 testlvs nanny[5062]: making <a href="http://192.168.17.17:8004">192.168.17.17:8004</a> available Jul 21 20:25:53 testlvs nanny[5064]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.17:9004">192.168.17.17:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:25:59 testlvs nanny[5065]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.16:9004">192.168.17.16:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:25:59 testlvs nanny[5064]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.17:9004">192.168.17.17:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:26:05 testlvs nanny[5065]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.16:9004">192.168.17.16:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:26:05 testlvs nanny[5064]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.17:9004">192.168.17.17:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:26:11 testlvs nanny[5065]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.16:9004">192.168.17.16:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:26:11 testlvs nanny[5064]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.17:9004">192.168.17.17:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:26:17 testlvs nanny[5065]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.16:9004">192.168.17.16:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:26:17 testlvs nanny[5064]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.17:9004">192.168.17.17:9004</a> was too short Jul 21 20:26:23 testlvs nanny[5065]: READ from <a href="http://192.168.17.16:9004">192.168.17.16:9004</a> was too short ################################################################################ I am not able to see any thing for 9004 whenever i try ipvsdam -L.
