[Linux-cluster] Can telnet or ssh be a clustered service?

[Robert Hurst]

True.  But you can also lose all your TCP connections at the network
director (lvsd), too, on failover because it only supports
active-passive.  The keepalived project promises to be a better LVS
network director to handle active-active failover... I hope something
like that gets considered for integration.
