TCP connection failed on udp port

[Cyclic3]

When I use this on a service that exposes a udp port, I get the following errors:

Wed Apr  4 10:13:47 2018: TCP connection to [10.40.0.5]:udp:34197 failed.
Wed Apr  4 10:13:48 2018: TCP connection to [10.40.0.5]:udp:34197 failed.
Wed Apr  4 10:13:48 2018: Check on service [10.40.0.5]:udp:34197 failed after 1 retry.
Wed Apr  4 10:13:48 2018: Removing service [10.40.0.5]:udp:34197 to VS [192.168.1.127]:udp:34197

It appears as if the system is treating the udp port as a tcp port.

Any ideas?

As a workaround, use the VIP as an externalIP on your service and don't put the service name in your keepalived configmap. This will avoid the use of a tcp check.

Ok, thanks!
