Questions tagged [keepalived]

an open source daemon that implements the VRRP standard.

The keepalived project is an open source implementation of the VRRP protocol as well as a configuration interface to the Linux ipvs framework. VRRP is based on Cisco's proprietary Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) concepts. When these two portions of the application are used in concert, a pair of linux servers can be a stable, low-cost alternative to commercial load balancers.

Cisco has claimed that VRRP is protected under HSRP patents, so using keepalived is legally questionable.

Keepalived not executing scripts

I have a few state change scripts executed and they seem to be called on when I view the service status but they never run. If I execute the script manually it works fine. Any thoughts? Using Deb9.

How does loadbalancers like haproxy and keepalived implement failover/high-availability for themselves, in case the machine they are running dies?

I'm trying to understand how my load balance software does not become a single-point-of-failure. Do load-balancing software usually support failover/ha for themselves?

What FLOSS linux software should I use for high-availability on an FTP server on vmware?

I don't mean this as an opinion-based question. I want to know if my assumption is correct to use a network-oriented tool (keepalived) as opposed to a cluster-oriented tool (heartbeat) in a scenario where I want to have several linux FTP servers…
