Stefan Nica b3af52e738 Keepalived global_defs configuration entries required to avoid DNS lookup
This changeset addresses a particular L3-HA Neutron deployment scenario
in which the DNS server configured for the management network is not
also accessible from the virtual router namespace (i.e. over the
external network).
Keepalived uses the hostname against getaddrinfo twice to set default
values for the router_id and notification_email_from global configuration
attributes. If the hostname cannot be resolved through /etc/hosts and
if the nameserver is not reachable, long delays are incurred during
keepalived startup and configuration reload, causing VRRP state flapping
and dropped traffic over floating IPs.

Setting router_id and notification_email_from in the keepalived
configuration avoids unnecessary DNS lookups. However, this solution
is only effective with keepalived >= 1.2.17. Older versions still
exhibit the same problem with or without this patch.
