安装LVS软件
LVS是通过IPVS模块来实现的。IPVS是LVS集群系统的核心软件，主要用于完成用户的请求到达负载调度器后，如何将请求发送到每个real server节点、read server节点如何返回数据给用户等。
--如下命令检查kernel是否已经支持LVS的IPVS模块：
[root@dns ~]# modprobe -l |grep ipvs
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_rr.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_wrr.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lc.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_wlc.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblc.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_lblcr.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_dh.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_sh.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_sed.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_nq.ko
kernel/net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_ftp.ko
如果有类似上面的输出，表明系统内核默认支持IPVS模块。接下来可以安装IPVS管理软件了。
11.4.1 在Director Server（即LVS服务器）上安装IPVS管理软件
IPVS提供的软件包邮源码方式的也有rpm方式的，也可以通过源码方式安装IPVS。从http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/software/ipvs.html下载对应的ipvs源码。
rpm包方式安装：
[root@dns ipvsadm-1.26]# yum install ipvs
--如果看到下面的帮助信息，表明IPVS已经成功安装：
[root@dns ipvsadm-1.26]# ipvsadm --help
