[users@httpd] load balancing with Apache for Tomcat workers

Hi All,

I need to configure mod_proxy_balancer for the load balancing of two tomcat
instances running as backed servers. Can anybody give me any advice for how
to configure mod_proxy_balancer with above scenario.

Best Regards,
H. Iroshan

Hi, this is another example using location directive for balancing applications arounds tomcats:

 

suppose that you have 3 urls or applications you want to balance using these context path: app1, app2 and app3

suppose that you have 2 tomcats with ajp on ports 8009 and 8007

 

so you config is:

 

<Proxy balancer://tomcats/>

          BalancerMember ajp://tomcat-srv1.com:8007 route=tomcat1 loadfactor=1 keepalive=On 

          BalancerMember ajp://tomcat-srv2.com:8009 route=tomcat2 loadfactor=1 keepalive=On 

</Proxy> 

 

<Location /tomcats/app1/> 

     ProxyPass balancer://tomcats/app1/ stickysession=jssesionid|JSESSIONID nofailover=On lbmethod=byrequests

     ProxyPassReverse balancer://tomcats/app1/ 

     Order Deny,Allow 

     Allow from all 

</Location> 

<Location /tomcats/app2/> 

     ProxyPass balancer://tomcats/app2/ stickysession=jssesionid|JSESSIONID nofailover=On lbmethod=byrequests

     ProxyPassReverse balancer://tomcats/app2/ 

     Order Deny,Allow 

     Allow from all 

</Location> 

<Location /tomcats/app3/> 

     ProxyPass balancer://tomcats/app3/ stickysession=jssesionid|JSESSIONID nofailover=On lbmethod=byrequests

     ProxyPassReverse balancer://tomcats/app3/ 

     Order Deny,Allow 

     Allow from all 

</Location> 

 

and to monitor your balancer

 

<Location /balancer-manager> 

     SetHandler balancer-manager

     AuthType Basic

     AuthName "Cluster manager " 

     AuthUserFile conf/.htpasswd 

     Require valid-user

     Order Deny,Allow 

     Allow from all 

</Location> 


 

do not forget to add proxy modules

 

Inas.

Yes.
1) read the on-line documentation.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy_balancer.html
2) try it out
3) come back if you have a problem
When you do, provide details of what you tried, which Apache, which 
Tomcat etc..
