Greetings Wolfgang Hi! > Whats the explicit difference between > Disable/Enable/SoftStop/SoftStart/KillSessions functions? Disable/Enable matches the "disable/enable server x" on the unix socket, see documentation at [1] and [2]. SoftStop set the servers weight to zero [3]. > Is the way over the webinterface the "proceed right way" to disable a > web-server in background example for maintenance? *Usually* something like this: - *soft stop* (sets weigth to zero, so no *new* sessions come up) - wait for existing session to finish - *disable* the backend server for maintenance - do the actual maintenance - *enable* the server again - and *soft start* the server again (<-- do not forget this one) Regards, Lukas [1] http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/configuration-1.4.html#9-disable%20server [2] http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/configuration-1.4.html#9-enable%20server [3] http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/configuration-1.4.html#9-set%20weight
