Haproxy and CNAME
- by user123354
I want to create a simple load balancer for the two servers.
The problem is with CNAME records, I think.
Let's say I have two the same applications on AppFog.com.
app1.aws.af.cm and app2.aws.af.cm
Here is my haproxy.cfg file:
global
maxconn 2000
daemon
defaults
mode http
clitimeout 60000
srvtimeout 30000
contimeout 4000
option httpclose
listen http_proxy
bind [myip]:80
mode http
stats enable
stats auth user:passwd
stats uri /stats
balance source
option httpchk
option forwardfor
server host01 app1.aws.af.cm:80 maxconn 300 check
server host02 app2.aws.af.cm:80 maxconn 300 check
But this only resolving IP for domain app1.aws.af.cm and app2.aws.af.cm, which obviously doesn't work if I open this IP in web browser.
The problem is that AppFog doesn't have public IP for application (same as OpenShift).
How to do that Haproxy to perform a proper connection between Load Balancer and this two servers?
Example:
This is real app - http://freechat.eu01.aws.af.cm
Haproxy only resolves IP for this domain which is 46.51.204.8:80
Of course this IP will not show my application, only an error page.
Sorry for my poor English.
