Literal IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are not permitted in "HostName". So httpd won't set the SNI in your case, I guess "localhost" instead of 127.0.0.1 would work... > > ProxyPreserveHost On While this is meaningful for forwarded client requests (their "Host:" header can be preserved on the backend side, instead of using the one from the ProxyPass/BalancerMember directive), it does not apply to healthcheck where connections/requests are created on the httpd proxy and there is nothing to preserve, so the only hostname/SNI to use in the one from ProxyPass/BalancerMember here. So for healthcheck requests to be accepted by your backend (name based virtual host), you need to set real hostnames in BalancerMember(s) above, or use "localhost" provided that "ServerAlias localhost" is configured on the backend for the relevant vhost.
