Owen, what exactly does "labelled" mean? Can I think of it in our case as the request having a cookie JSESSIONID=<numbers>.tomcat1, i.e. a suffix matching one of the configured workers? If so, we completely misinterpreted the meaning of "redirect". We are looking for a way to starve an instance: matching requests should still get routed to this instance (we have sticky sessions), but requests without a session must get routed to another instance. If redirection in mod_proxy_balance does not work this way, what is the preferred way to smoothly fade out an instance?

AFAIK, it works like this: > > Disable only: labelled requests for that route get "server unavailable", unlabelled requests will go to other routes. > Redirect only: labelled requests for that route get redirected, unlabelled requests can go to any route, including this one (this is your case). > Redirect and disable: labelled requests for that route get redirected, unlabelled requests will go to other routes. > > Rgds, > Owen Boyle --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
