Hi
I am working on the configuration of a 11503, I have the http side working fine but having trouble finding any details on how to balance the ldap service.
The services show as being up, and the keepalives work. But I must be missing something.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Andrew
service LDAP_STAFF01
ip address x.x.85.33

keepalive port 389

content LDAP_STAFF
url "/*"

Does it work better if you remove the url "/*" command in the content block?

I have tried it with or without and it makes no difference.
Eventually I would like to balance two DB servers as well, but have to sort out how to get this one working.

Andrew,
The URL command only has effect for web services, so it can be removed.
Are the users of the LDAP VIP in the same subnet as the services (your x.x.86 subnet)? If so, the servers are replying directly to the user, bypassing the CSS in the response. To fix this, either make the CSS default gateway for the services, or add "group" to the config, give it a vip address, then add services to it, activate, test again.

The clients are on the same subnet, ldap servers on different subnet. I have tried some with the default gateway configured to the CSS and some connected directly into the content switch.
Even tried setting up a group and still no luck.

Hi there,
Did you ever get proper ldap load balancing working with the CSS? I'm having a similar issue and I sure would appreciate to pick your brain.
