Hi,
in my previous thread x509, i mentioned i have 3 linux boxes with a
load balancer in their front-end. They all serve www.mydomain.com
<http://www.mydomain.com> through the VIP interface of the load
balancer switch. My impression is that the load balancer should
distribute the load traffic among the 3 servers, right?
checking the daily apache/error_log file of each server showed me
these logs at a certain point in time.
linux1:
[info] server seems busy, (you may need to increase StartServers, or
Min/MaxSpareServers), spawning 32 children, there are 0 idle, and 179
total children
linux2:
[info] server seems busy, (you may need to increase StartServers, or
Min/MaxSpareServers), spawning 32 children, there are 0 idle, and 1429
total children
linux3:
[info] server seems busy, (you may need to increase StartServers, or
Min/MaxSpareServers), spawning 32 children, there are 0 idle, and 78
total children
for newbie like me, linux2 is taking so much load compare to linux1
and linux3. Is the load balancer not distributing the load across the
servers? I mean, the numbers may not be equal to all servers but at
least just differ by a couple of tens of processes not hundreds.
All servers have MaxSpareServers 10 and StartServers 5. Any ideas,
why linux2 has so much?
thanks,
Sir june
