I was wondering if Pound supports the creation of a group of backend
servers. Say I've got a pound server that support 20 websites
(unique public IP's / SSL certs) but I use the same 10 web servers.
Is there a way to avoid having to list the backend servers for each
of the 20 websites?
They're not explicitly named "pools", nor are they as formal as you
describe, but its possible and easy.
Take the following snippit for example:
ListenHTTP
Address 127.0.0.1
Port 80
End
ListenHTTP
Address 127.0.0.2
Port 80
End
ListenHTTP
Address 127.0.0.3
Port 80
End
Service "default"
Backend
Address 192.168.1.1
Port 80
End
Backend
Address 192.168.1.2
Port 80
End
Backend
Address 192.168.1.3
Port 80
End
End
In this example incoming traffic to 127.0.0.{1,2,3} would all be served
by the group of backends in the "default" service directive.
Pound uses a first-match system, so just put the "default" block last in
your cfg file and make sure nothing else matches it.
The above may not be 100% ideal, since you may have to repeat yourself a
little in places, but perl or whatever your favorite scripting language
is helps there.
