Re:Redundant Load Balancers?

what you are referring to is heartbeat, its recommended to setup a serial connection between load balancers that send a pulse, also the article didn't mention the linux director daemon whose responsibility is to monitor real servers from the load balancer, without this most scheduling results in the client missing the service once out of the number of real servers.
Here's some fun, setup your lvs then install mysql cluster on it<nobr> <wbr></nobr>:)
