NGINX Plus trial and HA with keepalived in active-active mode

[Fabiano Furtado Pessoa Coelho]

Hi...

I'm trying to configure keepalived in active-active mode, using 2
nodes, based on the official documentation
https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/high-availability/ha-keepalived-nodes/,
but the environment became unstable. The TCP connection is closing all
the time and I don't know what's wrong with my keeepalived config.

I'm using RHEL 8.5 with SELinux enabled and enforcing.

The configuration of my first NGINX Plus node:

global_defs {
        vrrp_version 3
        router_id nginx_prod1
}

vrrp_script chk_manual_failover {
        script "/usr/libexec/keepalived/nginx-ha-manual-failover"
        interval 10
        weight 50
}

vrrp_script chk_nginx_service {
        script "/usr/libexec/keepalived/nginx-ha-check"
        interval 3
        weight 50
}

vrrp_instance VI_1 {
        state MASTER
        interface eth0
        priority 99
        virtual_router_id 31
        advert_int 1
        accept
        garp_master_refresh 5
        garp_master_refresh_repeat 1
        unicast_src_ip x.y.z.48/26
        unicast_peer {
                x.y.z.50
        }
        virtual_ipaddress {
                x.y.z.49/26 brd x.y.z.63 dev eth0
        }
        track_script {
                chk_nginx_service
                chk_manual_failover
        }
        notify "/usr/libexec/keepalived/nginx-ha-notify"
}

vrrp_instance VI_2 {
        state BACKUP
        interface eth0
        priority 98
        virtual_router_id 41
        advert_int 1
        accept
        garp_master_refresh 5
        garp_master_refresh_repeat 1
        unicast_src_ip x.y.z.48/26
        unicast_peer {
                x.y.z.50
        }
        virtual_ipaddress {
                x.y.z.51/26 brd x.y.z.63 dev eth0
        }
        track_script {
                chk_nginx_service
                chk_manual_failover
        }
        notify "/usr/libexec/keepalived/nginx-ha-notify"
}

And the "ip a" config:
  eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel
state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet x.y.z.48/26 brd x.y.z.63 scope global noprefixroute eth0
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet x.y.z.49/26 brd x.y.z.63 scope global secondary eth0
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet x.y.z.51/26 brd x.y.z.63 scope global secondary eth0
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever



The configuration of my second NGINX Plus node:

global_defs {
        vrrp_version 3
        router_id nginx_prod2
}

vrrp_script chk_manual_failover {
        script "/usr/libexec/keepalived/nginx-ha-manual-failover"
        interval 10
        weight 50
}

vrrp_script chk_nginx_service {
        script "/usr/libexec/keepalived/nginx-ha-check"
        interval 3
        weight 50
}

vrrp_instance VI_1 {
        state MASTER
        interface eth0
        priority 101
        virtual_router_id 51
        advert_int 1
        accept
        garp_master_refresh 5
        garp_master_refresh_repeat 1
        unicast_src_ip x.y.z.50/26
        unicast_peer {
                x.y.z.48
        }
        virtual_ipaddress {
                x.y.z.51/26 brd x.y.z.63 dev eth0
        }
        track_script {
                chk_nginx_service
                chk_manual_failover
        }
        notify "/usr/libexec/keepalived/nginx-ha-notify"
}

vrrp_instance VI_2 {
        state BACKUP
        interface eth0
        priority 100
        virtual_router_id 61
        advert_int 1
        accept
        garp_master_refresh 5
        garp_master_refresh_repeat 1
        unicast_src_ip x.y.z.50/26
        unicast_peer {
                x.y.z.48
        }
        virtual_ipaddress {
                x.y.z.49/26 brd x.y.z.63 dev eth0
        }
        track_script {
                chk_nginx_service
                chk_manual_failover
        }
        notify "/usr/libexec/keepalived/nginx-ha-notify"
}

And the "ip a" config:
  eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel
state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

    inet x.y.z.49/26 brd x.y.z.63 scope global secondary eth0
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
