Re: why nopreempt do not work in keepalived?

There is a difference of more that 50 ‎in the priorities that means hard fail over to the one with the higher priority. That behavior is stated in the VRRP RFC's

Subject: [Keepalived-devel] why nopreempt do not work in keepalived?

Hi all,

It has taken several days to build LVS+keepalived environment, but it cannot meets the demand. My configuration is as followed:

Server-A:
State - BACKUP
priority - 200
nopreempt
Server-B:
State - BACKUP
priority - 100

First of all, VIP is at Server-A.
Then I plug out Server-A's cable, so VIP is at Server-B.
Finally I plug in Server-A's cable, and Server-A preempt the VIP.

Questions:
1. It seems that the flag 'nopreempt' doesn't work, WHY?

2. What can I do if I want to forbid Server-A from preempting the VIP?

Thanks in advance.
