My bad, you are correct. I think I was mistaken by not looking further at the other chapters. I got the impression that the RHEL 7 documentation leans towards setting up keepalived + haproxy as illustrated in the first chapter on https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Load_Balancer_Administration/s1-lvs-block-diagram-VSA.html.
