size=2>In doing so I will have two layers of redundancy. The first layer will be
if the LVS server hosting the VIP's fails, it will fail over to the backup LVS
server. This functionality is default for LVS. However I also require redundancy
at the node level. So if the active HTTP server fails, it moves to the backup
HTTP server, without initiating a failover to the Backup LVS
server.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

size=2>From what I am reading (I could be misreading) FOS occurs at the server

handled by the Active HTTP server, and have the backup only take over if I
choose to fail it over, or the active server fails on its
own.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>You can try to configure FOS ( fail-over service) mode which
is supported by piranha as well. </DIV>

<P><SPAN><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Hi there</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN><FONT face=Verdana size=2>I have been having some issues
implementing a new load balancing system, and was hoping someone could over
some advice.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana><FONT size=2>Our current configuration is configured
using ldirectord. The active node hosts all the virtual servers. Each
virtual server will have an active real server, and a backup real server.
All the traffic will be directed to the active real server, unless that
server becomes unreachable, at which point all traffic will be directed to
the backup server.<SPAN> In other words, a traditional real/fallback
system.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana><FONT size=2>I am however only able to get piranha/lvs
to do load sharing. In this case as long as both servers are set to UP, then
traffic will be balanced between all servers (determined by load balancing
scheme and weighting.) What I am attempting to do is create a virtual server
in LVS, which has two active REAL servers, however direct traffic only to
one of them, unless otherwise directed or if the active member fail, then
direct traffic to the backup.<SPAN> I am basically trying to replicate the
ldirectord/heartbeat system with piranha/lvs/pulse.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana><FONT size=2><SPAN>Any directions which can be offered
would be great appreciated.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></P></DIV>
