Update of /cvsroot/devil-linux/build/scripts/configuration/help In directory fdv4jf1.ch3.sourceforge.com:/tmp/cvs-serv6071/scripts/configuration/help Added Files: keepalived.help Log Message: add keepalived --- NEW FILE: keepalived.help --- CONFIG_KEEPALIVED The main goal of the keepalived project is to add a strong & robust keepalive facility to the Linux Virtual Server project. This project is written in C with multilayer TCP/IP stack checks. Keepalived implements a framework based on three family checks: Layer3, Layer4 & Layer5/7. This framework gives the daemon the ability of checking a LVS server pool states. When one of the server of the LVS server pool is down, keepalived informs the linux kernel via a setsockopt call to remove this server entrie from the LVS topology. In addition keepalived implements an independent VRRPv2 stack to handle director failover. So in short keepalived is a userspace daemon for LVS cluster nodes healthchecks and LVS directors failover. |
