HAProxy list, I wanted to confirm what I've read in the documentation and on other posts concerning HAProxy and failover using the Peer functionality. HAProxy does not automatically failover for you - if two HAProxy instances are linked as peers, if an instance go down (or a frontend and/or backend is purposefully brought down via command line), HAProxy will not automatically start routing traffic to the other functioning HAProxy instance. It is up to a DNS or some other layer to send traffic to the second HAProxy instance, but the second instance will at least have the updated stick-table info from the first instance to use when determining routing of traffic. Is that how I should understand the peer functionality or am I just not configuring it correctly?
Thanks (as usual), Zack Connelly
