How to launch a Load Balancer for the Apache Reverse Proxy server?
by n00b_noob from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5F87C)
Hello,
I configured my Apache Reverse Proxy as a Load Balancer to handle Back-End servers. When a Back-End server stopped, then another one provide service:
Code:<VirtualHost *:80>
<Proxy balancer://cluster>
BalancerMember http://Server1's-IP/
BalancerMember http://Server2's-IP/
</Proxy>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / balancer://cluster/
ProxyPassReverse / balancer://cluster/
</VirtualHost>How can I do it with Reverse Proxy server itself? When a Reverse Proxy stopped, then another Reverse Proxy provides services?
Thank you.
