Does anyone suggest any clever way of controlling OSPFD based on the status of an HAProxy process?
I like to use OSPFD to advertise /32 loopback IPs which HAProxy binds to for anycasted highly-available Reverse Proxy/Load Balancer services. This works great if the whole box goes down, as OSPF would no longer be advertising from that site, but if the HAProxy process fails for some reason, then it just goes down as the IP will stay in the OSPF table. I know there are tools like monit or supervisord which may help with this, but I wanted to see if anyone here may have any ideas on how to achieve this that I may be overlooking. Thanks! -Henry
