Mailing List Archive: Server Healthcheck

mod_backhand is peer based. It is "up" if Apache is "up" as it is a
part of Apache. Aside from that, it doesn't do any health checks.

You don't go about configuring mod_backhand to balance requests across
a cluster of servers. You install mod_backhand on each machine and
they see each other and start balancing.
