Hello, I'm trying to set up a LVS where the directors are also real-servers, like in http://www.ultramonkey.org/3/topologies/sl-ha-lb-eg.html. In fact I've done so successfully with pair of test machines running Debian sid/lenny.
This configuration requires the Virtual IP to be present on a lo: alias interface and using the heartbeat in sid this was no problem with a line like: testbox03 192.168.1.88/24/eth0 ldirectord::web Using just the IP address would cause IPaddr to delete the lo:0 interface, so including the interface is needed. The etch heartbeat-2 package features an older IPaddr version which obviously doesn't have the extended netmask/interface parsing and while it will bring up the Virtual IP it will also remove it from the lo:0 interface. Trying to do this with IPaddr2 will hang infinitely. The sid version of IPaddr2 does not hang, but also goes wiping out the lo:0 definition. Anything I'm missing here in terms of arcane and mysterious options? Any way to get this fixed in etch? Any way to copy the sid IPaddr to an etch system using a different name so that any updates don't wipe it out (just copying it and it's ocf counterpart as IPaddr3 did not work ;)? And yes, I could of course bring up the lo:0 alias every time after a resource start/transition. But during that time the real-server of that machine would be disrupted needlessly. So what I really need and want is an IPaddr that does it's job on the interface it's told to and only that one.
