LVS with Ldirectord (UltraMonkey) problems

[Craig Ward]

Hi there,

I'm having some problems getting LVS working under UltraMonkey hoping someone might be able to help. I've got everything working fine when using the RPMS, but now compiled using source has lead to a problem:

My ldirectord config files looks like this:

# Global Directives
checktimeout=3
checkinterval=1
fallback=127.0.0.1:80
autoreload=yes
logfile="/var/log/ldirectord.log"
quiescent=yes

# Virtaul Server for HTTP
virtual=192.168.2.70:80
        fallback=127.0.0.1:80
        real=192.168.2.77:80 gate
        real=192.168.2.73:80 gate
        real=192.168.2.3:80 gate
        service=http
        scheduler=rr
        protocol=tcp

Doing a tcpdump on the real servers shows packets hitting port 80 from the lvs box and Apache is running on all 3 real servers and I can view it fine directly on their IPs through a web browser.

But ldirectord doesn't seem to be updating lvs:

IP Virtual Server version 1.0.6 (size=4096)
Prot LocalAddress:Port Scheduler Flags
  -> RemoteAddress:Port           Forward Weight ActiveConn InActConn
TCP  monkey.testdomain:http rr
  -> localhost.localdomain:http   Local   1      0          0   

Is there anything that I could've missed or any further config I need to do? I've added the IP of the load balancer as a dummy interface with arp hidden on each real server. 

Many Thanks,
Craig.
