  • ·         mod_lbmethod_byrequests.so
  • ·         mod_lbmethod_bytraffic.so
  • ·         mod_lbmethod_heartbeat.so


Step 3: Enable below module for balancer-manager status.

Step 4: Edit httpd.conf file Add below configuration.

#################################################

<Proxy balancer://mybalancer>

BalancerMember http://192.168.0.103:8080   route=node1 loadfactor=1 ping=10 ttl=600 keepalive=On
BalancerMember http://192.168.0.103:8090   route=node2 loadfactor=1 ping=10 ttl=600 keepalive=On
proxyset lbmethod=bytraffic 

</Proxy>

########################################################

ProxyPreserveHost On

ProxyPass /sample   balancer://mybalancer/sample  stickysession=JSESSIONID|jsessionid timeout=10 nofailover=On
ProxyPassReverse /sample   balancer://mybalancer/sample

ProxyPass  /calendar   balancer://mybalancer/calendar  stickysession=JSESSIONID|jsessionid timeout=10 nofailover=On
ProxyPassReverse  /calendar     balancer://mybalancer/calendar

ProxyPass /hello   balancer://mybalancer/hello  stickysession=JSESSIONID|jsessionid timeout=10 nofailover=On
ProxyPassReverse /hello   balancer://mybalancer/hello

#######################################################



Where,
  • ·                        mybalancer (balancer variable name)
  • ·                       BalancerMember [IP]:[PORT]  
  • ·                        proxyset lbmethod=bytraffic   (load balancer scheduler algorithms)
  • ·                        stickysession=JSESSIONID|jsessionid (load balancer stickiness)
  • ·                        ProxyPass /App   balancer://mybalancer/app 
NOTE : Enable Sticky Sessions A sticky session means that if a client request originally goes to a specific JBoss worker, all future requests will be sent to the same worker, unless it becomes unavailable.

####################################################
<Location "/balancer-manager">
