Summary
mod_heartmonitor
listens for server status messages generated
by mod_heartbeat
enabled origin servers and makes their status
available to mod_lbmethod_heartbeat
. This allows
ProxyPass
to use the "heartbeat"
lbmethod inside of ProxyPass
.
This module uses the services of mod_slotmem_shm
when
available instead of flat-file storage. No configuration is required to
use mod_slotmem_shm
.
mod_heartmonitor
,
mod_status
and mod_watchdog
must be either a static modules or, if a dynamic module, it must
be loaded before mod_heartmonitor
.
HeartbeatListen Directive
Description: | multicast address to listen for incoming heartbeat requests |
---|---|
Syntax: | HeartbeatListenaddr:port |
Default: | disabled |
Context: | server config |
Status: | Experimental |
Module: | mod_heartmonitor |
The HeartbeatListen
directive specifies the
multicast address on which the server will listen for status information from

---|---|
Syntax: | HeartbeatMaxServers number-of-servers |

Context: | server config |
Status: | Experimental |
Module: | mod_heartmonitor |
The HeartbeatMaxServers
directive specifies the
maximum number of servers that will be sending requests to this monitor
server. It is used to control the size of the shared memory allocated
to store the heartbeat info when mod_slotmem_shm
is in use.
HeartbeatStorage Directive
Description: | Path to store heartbeat data |
---|---|
Syntax: | HeartbeatStorage file-path |
Default: | HeartbeatStorage logs/hb.dat |
Context: | server config |
Status: | Experimental |

mod_slotmem_shm
is not loaded.
