http://serverfault.com – I have a high traffic website running with Drupal and Apache, five web servers behind a Varnish server load balancing. Let's say this site is example.com. I'm using five backends and a director like this in my default.vcl: director balancer round-robin { { .backend = web1; } { .backend = web2; } { .backend = web3; } { .backend = web4; } { .backend = web5; } } Now I'm working on a new Django project that will be a new section of this site running on example.com/new-section. After checking the documentation I found I can do something like this: sub vcl_recv { (HowTos)

Is it possible in Varnish 3 to configure a backend to have multiple probes?

I have multiple varnish servers and multiple backend servers running Drupal.

Every time I attempt to add an extra back end into our VCL file, it's fails.

Here is the DAEMON_OPTS we are running off:

DAEMON_OPTS="-a :80 \ -T localhost:6082 \ -f /etc/varnish/custom.vcl \ -u varnish -g varnish \ -S /etc/varnish/secret \ -s malloc,10G"

And here is the offending backend(s)

backend b1 { .host = "114.123.456.78

Originally I had a server with nginx running multiple websites. I added Varnish in front to be on port 80 and changed my nginx files to 8080. The problem I'm having is that only one site is working while the others are not.

I have two backends that I'm serving on my web server, both of them are remotely hosted by third party companies. One of them is a support portal page, which is passing cookies and I suspect is causing the page to not load.

I am using pound as a way to decode SSL for the backend, but the bulk of the work is done on varnish (including virtualhost stuff). As a result, I need pound to just forward all other traffic to varnish verbatim, but it doesn't seem to do that.

haproxy backend logging 22 weeks 6 days ago

I found difficulties in enabling logging in backend section of haproxy.

I want to set log in global section and per every backend set different log.

The problem is log global works perfectly fine, but log in sections doesn't work.

If there is something special to be set in order to enable logging in backend.

Thanks!

Front end ip 10.0.0.1 < Varnish

www.test1.com points to 10.0.0.1 www.test2.com points to 10.0.0.1

Backend ( apache separate server ) apache server

The website are running on apache server. I want to use varnish from a different server to point back to sites. Both sites use same ip. How can I pass 2 different host header back to apache ?
