You're welcome. |

Word of warning: If you lose the noarp option on one of the real-servers |
28 |
you will see very weird erratic behaviour which can be hard to debug. |
29 |
Depending on the load you push through the loadbalancer the realserver |
30 |
which sends an arp will die immediately or slowly whilst generating |
31 |
weird bugs in your app. |

|

Best way to check: login with ssh on the vip |
