Can we assume that you have small number of connections from every client? 1-2 per IP? Or a small sync_refresh_period value is used? Can you show all these sync* sysctl parameters that were used? > First of all the Kernel on both servers have been updated. Then LVS Backup has > been rebooted to drop all connections.

Because the sync_persist_mode=1 mode will not affect non-persistent services - their synchronisation should work as before. You can also try to grep for such established conns: # Find such ESTABLISHED conns grep ESTAB ip_vs_conn # and see what kind of conns we have from such client IPs, do # we have persistence templates, etc. grep client_ip ip_vs_conn > After turning on sloppy_tcp IP address have been moved from LVS Master to LVS > Backup.

So, at least sloppy_tcp appears to work :) Regards -- Julian Anastasov <ja@xxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe lvs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
