It's similar, yet different. First, it seems it's no longer triggered by config reloads but "just happens". Also, it happens very infrequently, maybe once a month, probably even less often - that is, over the five[0] productive and one test LBs, so statistically, it probably happens once or twice a year on a single LB. [0] We have 10+1 servers, five pairs with one productivem one standby plus one testing server. The way we switch things, a catatonic test server will pretty much go unnoticed. As such, it's pretty much impossible to reproduce. The symptoms are slightly different, to: keepalived *looks* okay, but it just doesn't see when a server disappears. Also, it eventually starts ignoring HUP completely. It's not completely frozen though: it keeps doing checks. Another odd thing I've witnessed: if you tell keepalived to bind to an IP (for the checks) that is'nt configured, it will complain a bit but still continue trying - and leaving everything inservice. I think it should either complain more loudly or take everything out of service as not being able to check is about the same as everything being down.
