Alex,
How does a forking proxy help when dealing with virtual IP addresses?
Perhaps I don't quite understand what you mean by a "forking proxy" but it
appears you'd have one "main" proxy that basically hands off requests to
others? Right?
If so, what happens if the "main" proxy crashes? All customers experience a
service outage.
LVS is a very valid approach to achieving 99.999% uptime from a service
perspective.
Regards,
Paul

Hello All,
I wanted to join this thread as it seems as a very interesting
discussion. I have been monitoring for some time now. I am not quite sure if
I this has been discussed before, but has anyone considered forking proxy
instead of load balancer? One thing I am not very clear on, is what
problem you are trying to resolve. Are you concerned that if sipuaregisters with
sip-01/mysql-01 then LVS sending the next request to
sip-02/mysql-02 without the second knowing what to do? Sorry, if this has
been already discussed.
