Thank you for your time. I've managed to do what I wanted yesterday but didn't have time to post back. Unfortunately I needed 2 pools - some servers are migrated to VM, some need to stay physical for time being. 2 different apps as well (luckily stateless so no need for stickiness). End of the day, very easy config.
For future reference, simplified config from apache:
If you have two or more servers load balancing, are the servers mirroring one another? If images, etc., are uploaded, will they be stored on all the servers so that if one server goes down, the images will be served up by another server? (1 Reply)
Hi guys, I wonder if someone would be able to assist with my problem. I have just set up a load balancer for a company I am working for. HTTP redirection is working fine, however they also want to load balance SSH and FTP too.
At the moment the perlbal config looks like;

Hi All,
I have one webserver which has an application for a set of internal users can be accessed by _http://server1.com
I am planning to load balance this application. For that I have cloned this server and build a new one which can be accessed using _http://server2.com]Server2.com. Also i... (2 Replies)
All,
I am running some RHEL 5 SFTP servers and I need to load balance them. I am most likely having to do a software load balance.
I tried it with Piranha, but I get a connection refused response after setting it up.
Anyone have any experience with trying to load balance SSH/SFTP and... (0 Replies)
Hi all,
I am looking for a solution to the following issue.
Basically, we are going to be implementing a series of front end splunk search heads (basically IO intensive web servers).
And wish to automatically redirect a new connection to the search head from the pool with most available... (0 Replies)
Hi,
Currently we have 3 old and 3 new servers catering to Live traffic. As my component move from legacy interfaces to MQ one, we want to have load balancing of old interfaces available on MQ interface as well.
For this, we want to send only 30% of all MQ traffic on 3 OLD Live servers, and want... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I am working on development project where I have to migrate many jobs from Tidal to Autosys R11.

Dear All,
Can any one help me for this request?
There is a case. I have 20 files which I need to FTP to 5 servers. I want to know if there is any possibility to make a load balancer which transfers files in round robin manner to 5 servers.
As per theoretical algorithm, what I think, flow can... (9 Replies)

Catalyst::Manual::Deployment::FastCGI - Deploying Catalyst with FastCGI
FastCGI Deployment
FastCGI is a high-performance extension to CGI. It is suitable for production environments, and is the standard method for deploying
Catalyst in shared hosting environments.
Pros
Speed
FastCGI performs equally as well as mod_perl. Don't let the 'CGI' fool you; your app runs as multiple persistent processes ready to
receive connections from the web server.
App Server
When using external FastCGI servers, your application runs as a standalone application server. It may be restarted independently from the
web server. This allows for a more robust environment and faster reload times when pushing new app changes. The frontend server can even
be configured to display a friendly "down for maintenance" page while the application is restarting.
Load-balancing
You can launch your application on multiple backend servers and allow the frontend web server to perform load-balancing among all of them.
And of course, if one goes down, your app continues to run.
Multiple versions of the same app
Each FastCGI application is a separate process, so you can run different versions of the same app on a single server.
Can run with threaded Apache
Since your app is not running inside of Apache, the faster mpm_worker module can be used without worrying about the thread safety of your
application.
Widely supported.
FastCGI is compatible with many server implementations, not just Apache.
Cons
You may have to disable mod_deflate. If you experience page hangs with mod_fastcgi then remove deflate.load and deflate.conf from
mods-enabled/
More complex environment
With FastCGI, there are more things to monitor and more processes running than when using mod_perl.
Standalone FastCGI Server
In server mode the application runs as a standalone server and accepts connections from a web server. The application can be on the same
machine as the web server, on a remote machine, or even on multiple remote machines. Advantages of this method include running the
Catalyst application as a different user than the web server, and the ability to set up a scalable server farm.
To start your application in server mode, install the FCGI::ProcManager module and then use the included fastcgi.pl script.
$ script/myapp_fastcgi.pl -l /tmp/myapp.socket -n 5
Command line options for fastcgi.pl include:
-d -daemon Daemonize the server.
-p -pidfile Write a pidfile with the pid of the process manager.
-l -listen Listen on a socket path, hostname:port, or :port.
-n -nproc The number of processes started to handle requests.
See below for the specific web server configurations for using the external server.
WEB SERVERS
Any web server which supports FastCGI should work with Catalyst. Configuration recipies for well-known web servers are linked below, and we
would welcome contributions from people deploying Catalyst on other web servers.
