Hi all, We have a large set of machines running haproxy (1.5.12), and each of them have hundreds of backends, many of which are the same across systems. nbproc is set to 12 at present for our 48 core systems. We are planning a centralized health check, and disable the same in haproxy, to avoid each process on each server doing health check for the same backend servers.
Is there any way to disable a single backend from the command line, such that each haproxy instance finds that this backend is disabled? Using socat with the socket only makes the handling process set it's status of the backend as MAINT, but others don't get this information. Appreciate if someone can show if this can be done.
