[Pacemaker] Networking and routing issues with Active-Active

Hi there!

I'm working on two possible solutions for this.

The first:

In the primitive corresponding the IPv4 assigned to the loopback
interface on the "non-doing-balancing" node, change the cidr_netmask
parameter to "32". This way, the local route table of each node is
modified and the machine will not try to route traffic to the subnet
of the IP to the loopback interface.

It's seems like a basis in linux networking. If the system has an IP
address assigned to one interface, the routes get modified so that any
package could potencially go throught that interface looking for that
subnet. But in this case, we want packages to not go via loopback but
eth0 (to all clients).

You may want to see what's happening to each node:

main table:
{ip route | route -n}

local table:
ip route show table local

cache table: (is being applied rigth now, for each package)
ip route show cache

The second:

The first option seems to work.  But if not, the IPaddr2 RA has a lot
of advanced options and parameters to investigate.


Best regards.
