Hi, A question ... but before I ask ... I'll give everyone a little background... I'm working on an application that we want to be able to scale n-way with a number of apache servers (using mod_jk and load balancing) to a number of tomcat servers running on seperate dedicated servers. In practise, server A (running apache and mod_jk) is configured to load balance between servers C,D,E and F. Server B (also running apache and mod_jk with load balancing) will balance between the same set of servers C,D,E anf F. We're also using the DNS round-robin for distribute the incoming http requests between servers A amd B. My question is... Assuming server C dies. The load balancers on servers A and B will eventually notice and redirect the requests to either D,E or F. That's fine and it seems to work. Once server C comes back on line, do we have to do anything specific to inform the load balancers or will they try to connect to a failed server/work on a ragular basis I've tested a little and the results indicate that it doesn't notice a failed servers resuming operation. Anyone know for sure what happens?
