[users@httpd] Loadbalacing between rewrite rule

[Tushar Chavan <tu...@hotmail.com>]

Hi Experts,
 
Can we load balacing between rewrite rule?
 
e.g, can we  load balace between below rewrite rules.
 
RewriteRule ^/(sap\(.*)         http://webserver1:98/$1 [P,L]
RewriteRule ^/(sap\(.*)         http://webserver2:98/$1 [P,L]
 
 
Best Regards,
Tushar.

Seems like a bad idea and doesn't even do anything basic as written.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy_balancer.html

If your traffic is modest, you could look at the # of seconds with a
rewritecond and pick webserver1 on even second and webserver2 on odd,
or write your own RewriteMap that returns webserver1 or webserver2
under whatever criteria you want.  But this is probably a dead end
compared to using a real load balancing solution.
