I've looked all over for information on how to configure varnish to use a VIP
and have not been able to find much - so I'm hoping someone here can assist.
Our setup goes like this: Hardware Loadbalancer (sticky sessions enabled) with
one VIP(perf-drupal.domain.com) directs to three Apache identical webservers
(each running Varnish - (perf-drupal1.domain.com, perf-drupal2.domain.com &
perf-drupal3.domain.com)). With the VCL that we currently have, it works like a
charm on each individual server, but when we try to use the VIP we get errors
(50% of the time) when trying to access the site, stating that it is not
available.
I've tried:
backend newsite {
.host = "localhost";
.port = "8080";
}
set req.http.host = "perf-drupal.domain.com";
set req.backend = newsite;
and using the default backend:
backend default {
.host = "127.0.0.1";
.port = "8080";
}
I've read about the DNS Director, but that's not available in the version I
have installed - 2.1.3. But since we are only running one site, I don't know if
it will help. I don't have access to any additional hardware, so I cannot split
out Varnish from the Apache web server.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! :)
