#keepalived
I wish Nginx Proxy Manager could be natively configured in a High Availability environment. I use Keepalived, which works great when I need to reboot a node, but when I need to upgrade NPM on the master container, keepalived will not swap unless I disconnect the container from the network.

Dammit, keepalived
Why are you like this?

It's a shame because it is *so easy* to get failover by including a simple keepalived docker container alongside Technitium. I wrote a how to blog post on how to do this and it's saved my ass many times.

Virtual IP (comme Keepalived ou KubeVIP), Talos est capable de le faire.

Just setup highly available DNS for my home network with 2 PiHole instances and Keepalived. Now if one of my machines goes down (intentionally or otherwise), the rest of the network seamlessly keeps on kicking. 99.999999999% uptime!

This is a really good watch on how to cluster PostgreSQL for everyone into self-hosting!

Used stack: PostgreSQL, Etcd, Patroni, HaProxy, Keepalived.
Today, I teach you how you can self-host a production-ready PostgreSQL cluster. I've even included all of the copy pasta commands!

☑️ Розгортання HA кластера Kubernetes з топологією external etcd з балансувальником трафіку HAProxy+Keepalived до вузлів панелі управління, з локальними HAProxy на кожному вузлі управління для доступу до зовнішнього кластера etcd…

Mission accomplished!

To be continued…

I've finally installed DietPi on my Raspberry Pi 4 to run a second instance of Pi-hole + Unbound in parallel to my trusty Raspi 2 that's been blocking ads for more than 5 years. The two instances now sync via nebula-sync and share a virtual IP using keepalived. Actually pretty easy to set up.

手元に一つk8sクラスタあると便利なので会社で組み始めてるけどなかなか楽しいな。kube-vipあればkeepalivedもmetallbもいらない。ただ、一つずつ確認しながらなので一式揃うのにちと手間かかる。

I haven't used keepalived for years and yet, but it seems like I used to just kill the process to trigger a manual failover

Had a couple of minutes to work on the #cluster tonight. Figured I'd get keepalived up and running so I can deploy #Caddy in HA tomorrow (hopefully 🤞).

keepalived で冗長化された haproxy での letsencrypt 証明書自動更新を仕掛けるのがしんどすぎる

- 証明書更新時に ポート80 が解放されてなければならない
- 名前でリクエストに行くので、keepalived を両方止めなきゃならない
- keepalived を両方止めると名前で引けなくなる(vip がなくなる)

こういう制約があるので、更新を本番運用中に自動で障害なくできる気がしない

証明書買ってくれー

Been there, wanted something more programatic, and can handle more than just basic records.
I just setup a pair of clustered Technitium servers, and performance is much better. Keepalived might be next on my list.

After setting up a new #Keepalived #vrrp setup on a @debian.bsky.social #Linux, the configured track_scripts were ignored.
As it turns out, the order in the configuration file is important!

Just wrapped standing up a 3-node Technitium cluster using Keepalived to issue a VIP for split horizon DNS for one of my domains with the added bonus of network-wide adblock.

Feels good, man.

keepalived, des bons healthchecks (la fréquence des checks à 30s sur un backend, c'est beaucoup trop haut à mon avis), deux-trois instances et tu as une config qui sera très difficile à faire tomber ;-)
