Consider setting ipvs sysctls #413

Description

@SEJeff

Per this redhat article, ipvs doesn't failover properly with udp services until the timeout is hit. This results in the data being blackholed for the duration of the timeout (defaults to 5 minutes). Setting this sysctl fixes this:

net.ipv4.vs.expire_nodest_conn: 1

Also from the article, this sysctl allows the backend weight to be set to 0 to quiesce the service (existing connections are not dropped but don't accept new connections):

net.ipv4.vs.expire_quiescent_template: 1
