Dear, I have a HAProxy balancing traffic to several nodes of the same farm.
I have not implemented any service/port check in order to monitor node
status (Up or Down), so the current node status at the statistics web
page is: NO CHECK.
backend myapp
balance roundrobin
option forwardfor
server MyServer 172.17.1.1:443 ssl verify none
My question is this:
If I don't implement any service/port check, does HAProxy always
consider that all the nodes are Up and always send traffic to them ???
Is it only when I define a check service/port clause the moment when
HAProxy knows about node status and doesn't send traffic to the given
down nodes ???
Special thanks !!!
