Hello Experts,
not sure if this subject was already discussed or not, like to hear the
advices and suggestions.
If a single HAProxy instance as a load-balancer could not handle the
high-load traffic, how to scale multiple instances as a group of
load-balancers to handle the high-load?
Thanks, Q.Xie
Hi,
You can enable multi-process mode for HAProxy by setting nbproc. The
description of nbproc is as below:
nbproc <number>
Creates <number> processes when going daemon. This requires the "daemon"
mode. By default, only one process is created, which is the recommended
mode of operation. For systems limited to small sets of file descriptors
per process, it may be needed to fork multiple daemons. USING MULTIPLE
PROCESSES IS HARDER TO DEBUG AND IS REALLY DISCOURAGED. See also "daemon".
