[users@httpd] Big apache setup

[Sten Fredriksson <st...@gmail.com>]

Hi, 

I'm in a project migrating several diffrent platforms into one singe.
The current VirtualHost count is about 200k and I wonder how you guys
are handling VirtualHosts in large setups? (php+suexec etc).

Using traditional config file is not going to work. mod_vhost_alias
will work but then there are some specialized VirtualHost configuration
for some of the vhosts (like enabling mod_python etc..) and then I'm back
to having like 30k vhosts in configuration file and it will take forever
to restart the httpd process....

You can either give the special configs their own name-based
<VirtualHost> containers, and let the others fall back to
mod_vhost_alias (listed in the first <VirtualHost> container), or you
can use <Directory> sections to apply the special configs only to
particular hosts.
