I already wrote about additional steps required to install UltraMonkey on CentOS with BlueQuartz. Soon after that I have discovered that there is more to do if you want to get a perfect setup.
One of the steps required to configure load-balanced cluster as described here was to create an IP alias on the loopback interface. It is needed so that real servers or standby director could see traffic for the virtual IP address.
But when creating a virtual site using BlueQuartz GUI it automatically adds an alias on primary network interface (eth0 in our case) in addition to the alias we already created manually.

Cobalt RaQ4 was laying around collecting dust so I decided to give it a second chance. Guys from OS Office (http://www.osoffice.co.uk) put together Strongbolt – excellent Linux distribution based on CentOS with Cobalt RaQ support.
I wanted to use Cobalt RaQ4 to test highly available and load balanced cluster configuration. However current Strongbolt kernel 2.6.16i586 doesn’t have IP virtual server support and had to be recompiled. Read More »
