<h3>Summary</h3>
<p>This module provides for dynamic health checking of balancer
members (workers). This can be enabled on a worker-by-worker
basis. The health check is done independently of the
actual reverse proxy requests.</p>
<p>This module <em>requires</em> the service of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_watchdog.html">mod_watchdog</a></code>.</p>
<div class="note"><h3>Parameters</h3>
<p>The health check mechanism is enabled via the use of additional
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html#balancermember">BalancerMember</a></code> parameters, which are configured
in the standard way via <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass">ProxyPass</a></code>:</p>
<p>A new BalancerMember <a href="mod_proxy.html#status_table">status</a> state (flag)
is defined via this module: "<code>C</code>".
When the worker is taken offline due to failures as determined by the health
check module, this flag is set, and can be seen (and modified) via the
<code>balancer-manager</code>.</p>

<h2><a name="examples" id="examples">Usage examples</a></h2>
<p>The following example shows how one might configured health checking
for various backend servers:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">ProxyHCExpr ok234 {%{REQUEST_STATUS} =~ /^[234]/}
ProxyHCExpr gdown {%{REQUEST_STATUS} =~ /^[5]/}
ProxyHCExpr in_maint {hc('body') !~ /Under maintenance/}
<Proxy balancer://foo>
BalancerMember http://www.example.com/ hcmethod=GET hcexpr=in_maint hcuri=/status.php
BalancerMember http://www2.example.com/ hcmethod=HEAD hcexpr=ok234 hcinterval=10
BalancerMember http://www3.example.com/ hcmethod=TCP hcinterval=5 hcpasses=2 hcfails=3
BalancerMember http://www4.example.com/
</Proxy>
ProxyPass "/" "balancer://foo"
ProxyPassReverse "/" "balancer://foo"</pre>
<p>In this scenario, <code>http://www.example.com/</code> is health checked by sending a <code>GET /status.php</code>
request to that server and seeing that the returned page does not include the string <em>Under maintenance</em>. If
it does, that server is put in health-check fail mode, and disabled. This dynamic check is performed
every 30 seconds, which is the default.</p>
<p><code>http://www2.example.com/</code> is checked by sending a simple <code>HEAD</code> request every
10 seconds and making sure that the response status is 2xx, 3xx or 4xx. <code>http://www3.example.com/</code> is checked
every 5 seconds by simply ensuring that the socket to that server is up. If the backend is marked as
"down" and it passes 2 health check, it will be re-enabled and added back into the load balancer.
It takes 3 back-to-back health check failures to disable the server and move it out
of rotation. Finally, <code>http://www4.example.com/</code> is
not dynamically checked at all.</p>
</div>
<div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="directive-section"><h2><a name="ProxyHCExpr" id="ProxyHCExpr">ProxyHCExpr</a> <a name="proxyhcexpr" id="proxyhcexpr">Directive</a></h2>
<table class="directive">
<tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Description">Description:</a></th><td>Creates a named condition expression to use to determine health of the backend based on its response</td></tr>
<tr><th><a href="directive-dict.html#Syntax">Syntax:</a></th><td><code>ProxyHCExpr <em>name</em> {<em>ap_expr expression</em>}</code></td></tr>

</table>
<p>The <code class="directive">ProxyHCExpr</code> directive allows
for creating a named condition expression that checks the response
headers of the backend server to determine its health. This named
condition can then be assigned to balancer members via the <code>hcexpr</code>
parameter.</p>
<div class="example"><h3>ProxyHCExpr: Allow for 2xx/3xx/4xx as passing</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">ProxyHCExpr ok234 {%{REQUEST_STATUS} =~ /^[234]/}
ProxyPass "/apps" "balancer://foo"
<Proxy balancer://foo>
BalancerMember http://www2.example.com/ hcmethod=HEAD hcexpr=ok234 hcinterval=10
</Proxy></pre>
</div>
<div class="note">
The <a href="../expr.html">expression</a> can use curly-parens ("{}") as
quoting deliminators in addition to normal quotes.
</div>
<p>If using a health check method (eg: <code>GET</code>) which results in a response
body, that body itself can be checked via <code>ap_expr</code> using the <code>hc()</code>
expression function, which is unique to this module.</p>
<p>In the following example, we send the backend a <code>GET</code> request
and if the response body contains the phrase <em>Under maintenance</em>,
we want to disable the backend.</p>
<div class="example"><h3>ProxyHCExpr: Checking response body</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">ProxyHCExpr in_maint {hc('body') !~ /Under maintenance/}
ProxyPass "/apps" "balancer://foo"
<Proxy balancer://foo>
BalancerMember http://www.example.com/ hcexpr=in_maint hcmethod=get hcuri=/status.php
</Proxy></pre>
</div>
<p><em>NOTE:</em> Since response body can quite large, it is best if used against specific status pages.</p>
</div>

<p>The <code class="directive">ProxyHCTemplate</code> directive allows

that can then be assigned to balancer members via the <code>hctemplate</code>
parameter.</p>

</table>
<p>If Apache httpd and APR are built with thread support, the health check
module will offload the work of the actual checking to a threadpool
associated with the Watchdog process, allowing for parallel checks.
The <code class="directive">ProxyHCTPsize</code> directive
determines the size of this threadpool. If set to <code>0</code>, no threadpool
is used at all, resulting in serialized health checks.</p>
<div class="example"><h3>ProxyHCTPsize</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">ProxyHCTPsize 32</pre>
