Dear all,
I am trying to get haproxy routing to a specific server if a header
(with the server nickname) is set.
My first guess was that the following config snipped would do it:
backend ...
acl force_backend req.hdr(X-Want-Backend) -m found
use_server %[req.hdr(X-Want-Backend)] if force_backend
But this is rejected by HAproxy (version 1.5.14)
unable to find server '%[req.hdr(X-Want-Backend)]' referenced in a
'use-server' rule
Can this be done ? I would like to avoid the "long" alternative where
each server is explicitly listed.
If yes, what happens at run time when a value that doesn't map to a real
server is passed in the header ?
Thanks !
M
