These workers are typically of type <b>ajp13</b>.

A higher <b class="code">lbfactor</b> will lead to more +requests being balanced to that worker. The factors must be given by integers and the +load will be distributed proportional to the factors given.

When the load balancer sees a session id, it +finds the name of the Tomcat instance and sends the request via the correct +member worker. For this to work you must set the name of the Tomcat instances +as the value of the <b class="code">jvmRoute</b> attribute in the Engine element of +each Tomcat's server.xml. The name of the Tomcat needs to be equal to the name +of the corresponding load balancer member. In the above example, Tomcat on host +"myhost1" needs <b class="code">jvmRoute="worker1"</b>, Tomcat on host "myhost2" +needs <b class="code">jvmRoute="worker2"</b>. +</font></p> + +<p>For a complete reference of all load balancer configuration +attributes, please consult the worker <a href="../reference/workers.html">reference</a>. +</p> +</blockquote></td></tr></table> + +<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" width="100%"><tr><td bgcolor="#828DA6"><font color="#ffffff" face="arial,helvetica.sanserif"><a name="Advanced Load Balancer Worker Properties"><strong>Advanced Load Balancer Worker Properties</strong></a></font></td></tr><tr><td><blockquote> +<p>The load balancer supports complex topologies and failover configurations. +Using the member attribute <b class="code">distance</b> you can group members. +The load balancer will always send a request to a member of lowest distance. +Only when all of those are broken, it will balance to the members of the +next higher configured distance. This allows to define priorities between +Tomcat instances in different data center locations. +</p> +<p>When working with shared sessions, either by using session replication +or a persisting session manager (e.g. via a database), one often splits +up the Tomcat farm into replication groups. In case of failure of a member, +the load balancer needs to know, which other members share the session. +This is configured using the <b class="code">domain</b> attribute. All workers +with the same domain are assumed to share the sessions.</p> +<p>For maintenance purposes you can tell the load balancer to not +allow any new sessions on some members, or even not use them at all. +This is controlled by the member attribute <b class="code">activation</b>. +The value <b>Active</b> allows normal use of a member, <b>disabled</b> +will not create new sessions on it, but still allow sticky requests, +and <b>stopped</b> will no longer send any requests to the member. +Switching the activation from "active" to "disabled" some time before +maintenance will drain the sessions on the worker and minimize disruption. +Depending on the usage pattern of the application, draining will take from +minutes to hours. Switching the worker to stopped immediately before +maintenance will reduce logging of false errors by mod_jk.</p> +<p>Finally you can also configure hot spare workers by using +<b class="code">activation</b> set to <b>disabled</b> in combination with +the attribute <b class="code">redirect</b> added to the other workers:</p> + +<div class="example"><pre> + # The advanced router LB worker + worker.list=router + worker.router.type=lb + worker.router.balance_workers=worker1,worker2 + + # Define the first member worker + worker.worker1.type=ajp13 + worker.worker1.host=myhost1 + worker.worker1.port=8009 + # Define preferred failover node for worker1 + worker.worker1.redirect=worker2 + + # Define the second member worker + worker.worker2.type=ajp13 + worker.worker2.host=myhost2 + worker.worker2.port=8009 + # Disable worker2 for all requests except failover + worker.worker2.activation=disabled +</pre></div> + +<p> +The <b class="code">redirect</b> flag on worker1 tells the load balancer +to redirect the requests to worker2 in case that worker1 has a problem. +In all other cases worker2 will not receive any requests, thus acting +like a hot standby. +</p> + +<p>A final note about setting <b class="code">activation</b> to <b>disabled</b>: +The session id coming with a request is send either +as part of the request URL (<b class="code">;jsessionid=...</b>) or via a cookie. +When using bookmarks or browsers that are running since a long time, +it is possible to send a request carrying an old and invalid session id +pointing at a disabled member. +Since the load balancer does not have a list of valid sessions, it will +forward the request to the disabled member. Thus draining takes longer than +expected. To handle such cases, you can add a Servlet filter to your web +application, which checks the request attribute <b class="code">JK_LB_ACTIVATION</b>. +This attribute contains one of the strings "ACT", "DIS" or "STP". If you +detect "DIS" and the session for the request is no longer active, delete the +session cookie and redirect using a self-referential URL. The redirected +request will then no longer carry session information and thus the load +balancer will not send it to the disabled worker.
