Hi,
To connect to database, I have a round-robin DNS alias that includes IP from all nodes. That nicely adds load balancing from DNS.
All clients are connecting using DNS round-robin alias.
Now I got node down and recovering.
I observe that JDBC and ODBC clients continue to connect properly. When client got connection to node that is down, it transparently reconnect to other IP. That result that client always receive working connection, even if one node is down. No additional config parameter like load balancing supplied to JDBC or ODBC clients.
vsql, on other side, throw an error each time it gets IP for recovering node:
vsql: FATAL 4149: Node startup/recovery in progress. Not yet ready to accept connections
Looks like client connectivity team did a great job for JDBC and ODBC driver, but left vsql out in cold as low priority.
Would it be possible to ask client team to make vsql to work same way as JDBC and ODBC clients.
If connection is to DNS alias that resolves to multiple IP addresses, chose random IP. If connection to random IP does not work with above error, transparently chose next IP address and try to connect again.
My database is 12.0.4-14, all clients are 12.0.4-X.
Thank you
Sergey
