Might hook in some suff to haproxyctl if you can output a version number/patch/something so the ctl script can recognize when someone is using this version...

Willy has said that he has no plans to include this patch, primarily due to the potential for configuration issues in dynamically configured frontends, backends, etc. Thanks, Jeff Ivan Ator <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Going from the documentation, there doesn't appear to be functionality for creating/destroying backends. Personally, I have accomplished your task by creating a series of scripts for maintaining the configuration file and reloading it while live.
