THIS IS AN AUTOMATED MESSAGE, DO NOT REPLY. The following task has a new comment added: FS#120 - DNS SRV balancing doesn't work User who did this - Andrei Pelinescu-Onciul (andrei) ---------- It's not a bug, try a non-zero weight and it should work as expected. 0 weights are a special case (the order is not exactly defined in this case and according to the algorithm from rfc2782 if all records have 0 weights, the first will be always selected). RFC2782 Page 3-4: Weight .... <code> Domain administrators SHOULD use Weight 0 when there isn't any server selection to do, to make the RR easier to read for humans (less noisy). </code> .... <code> The following algorithm SHOULD be used to order the SRV RRs of the same priority: To select a target to be contacted next, arrange all SRV RRs (that have not been ordered yet) in any order, except that all those with weight 0 are placed at the beginning of the list. Compute the sum of the weights of those RRs, and with each RR associate the running sum in the selected order. Then choose a uniform random number between 0 and the sum computed (inclusive), and select the RR whose running sum value is the first in the selected order which is greater than or equal to the random number selected. The target host specified in the selected SRV RR is the next one to be contacted by the client. </code> .... ---------- More information can be found at the following URL: http://sip-router.org/tracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=120#comment1… You are receiving this message because you have requested it from the Flyspray bugtracking system.
