No, you just have to use different load-balancing configurations for
each set of webapps you want to deploy differently.

Let's say you have 2 webapps: A and B.
Let's say you have 6 app servers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
Let's say you have the following deployments:

Server	Webapps
1	A
2	B
3	A
4	B
5	A, B
6       A, B

You will want to set up your workers to load balance webapp A separately
from webapp B, maybe like this:

workers.properties
- ------------------
worker.list=lbA, lbB

worker.lbA.type=lb
worker.lbA.balance_workers=server1, server3, server5, server6

worker.lbB.type=lb
worker.lbB.balance_workers=server2, server4, server5, server6

// now, configure the serverX workers in some obvious way

httpd.conf
- ----------

JkMount /webappA|/* lbA

JkMount /webappB|/* lbB

This should "protect" you from sending your requests to the wrong server.
