couple questions...

[Ricardo Kleemann]

Hi,

I was wondering if LVS can be useful for the following scenario:

I have 2 replicated database servers, for load balancing as well as high availability. And I have 2 other servers that run various applications that connect to the databases.

Instead of having a stand-alone LVS server, I thought about having the load balancer run on each of the 2 servers. So in other words, each server has its own lvs that connects to the 2 databases and then load balances the connections from that particular server between the 2 database servers.

Is there anything that would prevent me from doing that? Would it work as desired?

Thanks
Ricardo
