Example loadbalancing configuration for Open-Xchange Cluster

Introduction

this page contains a basic description about how to set up keepalived for Open-Xchange cluster. This example is to work on debian systems. Keepalived mode is Direct Routing.

it is required to have the ox servers and the loadbalancer connected to the same switch or hub so that MAC rewriting works and that there is no filter for the network packages (some virtualization system do that, too).

Directors setup

test1:~# apt-get install keepalived 
dpkg-reconfigure ipvsadm

answer the questions with "Yes" and then "Backup"

create a file

/etc/keepalived/keepalived.conf

with following contend (adapt network adresses)

global_defs {
    router_id OX
}

    group {

Real Servers setup

create a script that runs on every machine start:

#! /bin/sh

set -x

echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/lo/rp_filter
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_ignore
echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/lo/arp_announce
echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_announce

/sbin/ifconfig lo:0 $IP netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast $IP up
