1. A method for supporting load balancing in a multi-tenant cluster environment, comprising:
providing a plurality of interconnected nodes within a cluster environment, wherein at least two of the plurality of nodes are assigned to different partitions of a plurality of partitions defined within the cluster environment; and
generating a plurality of linear forwarding tables to be used within the cluster environment, wherein the generating the plurality of linear forwarding tables utilizes a respective weight parameter of at least the two of the plurality of nodes.
