We have just switched all the plans to the new final configuration
with 2 pre-load balancers which play the role of
firewall at the same time.
Now, we will be able to put in place 3 load balancers
active/active/active in order to fix the eventual problems of
load balancers.
Update(s):
Date: 2011-01-18 07:52:24 UTC We have just reswitched on the basic configuration with a simple
load repartition card. The whole idea of all this is to put
2 pre-load balancers + 3 load balancers and have 100% independently
of the nature of the problem.
Date: 2011-01-17 21:40:22 UTC We put in the loop the second pre-load balancing box.
Then activate the syn-cookies.
Date: 2011-01-17 13:07:37 UTC The pre-load balancer was using too much CPU. We have reported this problem and an engineering version was compiled and put it in place. We switch all the web hosting traffic to the the 1st box and we check the situation.
