CSS Keepalive state

[wiseitops]

When the CSS keepalive shows the state as "dying" is it still sending traffic to that server?

or is it holding the traffic in its buffer?

What does the user see?

thanks

A service that is dying will still receive connections/requests.

Assuming that the service has actually failed, the user will see a delay in reponse until the service is dead and the connection is reset/remapped.
