Public bug reported: The version in 14.04 is 1:1.2.7-1ubuntu1
There's an issue with reloading the configuration file, where the state of VRRP gets 'confused' (in lack of a better description), resulting in a floating IP being available on more than one host. This issue seems to be fixed in 1.2.17. Since the package hasn't had an update in over 2 years, I kindly request it to be updated to at least 1.2.17 For more information, see http://www.keepalived.org/changelog.html Extra info: 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Release: 14.04 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center 1:1.2.7-1ubuntu1 3) What you expected to happen Keepalived config reloaded without interruption of services. VRRP should notice VIP being present on one host and do nothing. 4) What happened instead Keepalived config was reloaded but VRRP decided to activate the VIP on the host that didn't have it previously. Resulting in routing errors etc. ** Affects: keepalived (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1481337 Title: please update keepalived to version 1.2.17 or higher To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/keepalived/+bug/1481337/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
