Hello All, My current interest is to install "Confluence" - http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/ in a "Cold Failover" mode. I'm currently running ApacheHttpd in front of Tomcat6 using mod_jk module and I prefer to leave Apache Httpd in front of Tomcat.
This is java application is using DB (Oracle in my case) and some kind of local caching technique (to make things run faster I presume). So there must be only one "Confluence" application at a time. I would like to configure"Cold Failover" in such a way that the moment current Tomcat instance become unresponsive, the command will run killing tomcat+"apache httpd" and starting another tomcat+"apache httpd" on another server (or just killing tomcat, but I'm not sure that it's doable, since it's not a regular loadbalancer worker setup). I know that there is a possibility to use 'Advanced worker directives' like connect_timeout, prepost_timeout and reply_timeout but I'm not sure that it's implementable in my case. Any suggestion on proposed configuration? May be there are some other ways to achieve what I want? Any help very much appreciated.
