[users@httpd] Add new instance in apache load balancer at runtime.

[Narendra Verma <na...@impetus.co.in>]

Hi experts;
A new instance can be added in apache load balancer by following configuration:

<VirtualHost _default_:801>
        ServerName impetus-887.impetus.co.in:801
    <Proxy balancer://medyaCluster>
        BalancerMember ajp://192.168.98.62:11009 route=tomcat2 loadfactor=1
        BalancerMember ajp://192.168.96.181:12009 route=tomcat1 loadfactor=1
        BalancerMember ajp://192.168.96.181:12008 route=tomcat3 loadfactor=1
    </Proxy>
    <Location /TestProject>
        ProxyPass balancer://medyaCluster/TestProject  lbmethod=byrequests stickysession=JSESSIONID
    </Location>
 </VirtualHost>

If I want to add new instance then I will put one more configuration like in blue color, will stop apache and again start it for making tomat3 as member of load balancing.

Is there any option in apache where I can add new instance at runtime. (Apache must not be bounced for making a new instance as a member of load balancing)

Thanks,
Narendra
