说明：
一、目 的：本文实现的Linux集群是基于Keepalived-1.2.9软件实现，
二、难 点：实现虚拟IP（VIP）自动切换的同时，还要同时实现虚拟MAC地址（VMAC）的切换，即无论集群中的Host如何切换，对外访问的IP和MAC始终不变
三、适用环境：当对外路由或交换机绑定主机MAC时适用
四、说 明：若无须对外绑定MAC地址，则大可简化如下配置
1. 环境及软件：
1) 系统：Debian6 amd64
2) 内核：linux 3.2.0-0.bpo.4-amd64
3) 软件：keepalived-1.2.9
2. 配置：
MASTER设备IP： eth0: 10.10.1.200/24 eth1:192.168.61.253/21
BACKUP设备IP： eth0: 10.10.1.100/24 eth1:192.168.61.252/21
VIP： 192.168.61.248/21
3. 安装步骤：
1）升级当前Debian系统内核linux 2.6.32
a) 修改Debian源文件/etc/apt/sources.list，添加一个向后兼容的源(源地址如下)
deb squeeze-backports main
b) 更新Debian源文件关联并升级系统内核至3.2.0
# aptitude update
# aptitude -t squeeze-backports install linux 3.2.0-0.bpo.4-amd64
如果编译NVDIA的官方驱动的话，还要装：
# aptitude -t squeeze-backports install linux-headers-3.2.0.bpo.4-amd64
2) 安装keepalived-1.2.9
a) 首先要安装keepalived所依赖的组件
# aptitude install make gcc libpopt-dev libnl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev
b) 将keepalived-1.2.9.tar.gz文件拷贝到/usr/local/soft下，解压，编译并安装到/usr/local/keepalived
# mkdir /usr/local/soft
通过ftp将文件拷贝至/usr/local/soft
# cd /usr/local/soft
# tar zxvf keepalived-1.2.9.tar.gz
# cd keepalived-1.2.9
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/keepalived
# make && make install
c) 重置keepalived相关文件，以便开机自动启动
# cp /usr/local/keepalived/sbin/keepalived /usr/sbin
# mkdir /etc/sysconfig
# cp /usr/local/keepalived/etc/sysconfig/keepalived /etc/sysconfig
# cp /usr/local/keepalived/etc/rc.d/init.d/keepalived /etc/init.d/
d) 修改keepalived启动脚本
# nano /etc/init.d/keepalived
修改/etc/init.d/keepalived文件，部分片段如下（蓝色标记为注释内容，红色标记为修改内容）：
……
#. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
. /lib/lsb/init-functions
# Source configuration file (we set KEEPALIVED_OPTIONS there)
. /etc/sysconfig/keepalived
RETVAL=0
prog="keepalived"
start() {
echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
# keepalived ${KEEPALIVED_OPTIONS}
keepalived -D
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/$prog
}
stop() {
echo -n $"Stopping $prog: "
killproc keepalived
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/$prog
}
……

if [ -f /var/lock/$prog ]; then
