[users@httpd] mod_proxy_balancer: how to define failover (only) / hot standby behavior?

[andi w <an...@gmx.de>]

Hello,

using Apache 2.2.0/mod_proxy_balancer, is it possible to configure a 
proxy balancer with two balancer members, where one of the two only gets 
the requests, if the other one fails?

In mod_jk that was possible using "local_worker_only", but with 
mod_proxy_balancer I have not yet understood how to define such behavior 
(defining "loadfactor=0" would be a way, probably working right away, 
but is definded to be a number between 1 and 100).

As far as I understand at the moment, it is only possible to define an 
"almost-only-hot-standby"-behavior, where the failover-backend gets 
1/100 of all requests..

Thanks in advance and best regards,
Andreas
