Just a reminder about this, providing a way to phase out a server by only accepting existing sessions/routed requests. |51247|New|Enh|2011-05-23|Enhance mod_proxy and _balancer with worker status I've reviewed the other patch https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48841 and I had a similar idea, wondering if the route-only intent would happen if I tried to set lbfactor=0 but it only allowed values 1-100 and I worried about the complexity of changing the lbmethod formulae so using a separate status code seemed cleaner. It's a bit of a magic value, but an intuitive one I think. On the user surface lbfactor=0 requires less change than my ROUTE_ONLY to the configuration and balancer-manager but it needs some documentation to clarify the intent. I also attached a patch to https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51247 for the trunk, but since I'm having trouble with the overall compile it's "in theory". Please forgive compile issues, but I wanted to at least share the thought and will update when I can verify a compile and test run.
In the end, either solution can work, and my hope is that multiple attempts at the same goal make a stronger case to bring the functionality to the 2.2.x stream for people to enjoy sooner rather than later. \|/- Keith Mashinter kmash...@yahoo.com From: Jim Jagielski <j...@jagunet.com> To: dev@httpd.apache.org Sent: Monday, September 19, 2011 9:00:44 AM Subject: Re: Pushing for httpd 2.4.0 GA On Sep 18, 2011, at 6:52 PM, Rainer Jung wrote: > >> - mpm_simple > > mpm_simple likely to get dropped for 2.4, see our main STATUS file > I hope to spent some time diving into mod_simple… I have some uncommitted patches that I need to re-look at.
