Hello.
We are using large squid cluster (~30 dedicated machines with squid) to
proxy-caching static content.
All separate squid's configured as sibling (each other, i.e. one level
hierarchy).
All requests to squid-machines go through one balancer. Balancer check
each squid (alive/not alive) via tcp-check (if port 3128/tcp accept
connections, then squid is alive).
But we want to use http checks for squid alive checking. Is it possible?
Depends on your balancer.
Squid does it automatically when "no-query" options is missing from
cache_peer lines.
I think you meant only-if-cached...
Querying the cache manager interface should work.
cache_object://$SQUIDHOST/menu
So does querying of any of the squid-internal-... objects which may be
simpler, depending on the capabilities of the load balancer in question.
http://$SQUIDHOST/squid-internal-static/icons/anthony-unknown.gif
or similar.

Thanks Henrik and Amos!
http checks via GET
http://squid_host:3128/squid-internal-static/icons/anthony-portal.gif
is more more conveniently than cache_object://$SQUIDHOST/menu .
But both ways suit me.
