Thank you
Would you please share with you a configuration example for two squid servers running behind hardware NLB switch where they use ICP and sibling relation, one of the two server is the origin for both
The sibling part of the config you had sort of right.
It was the accelerator part which was screwing it up.
The correct config for a reverse proxy (aka accelerator) is detailed at

Hi,
I have two servers Windows 2003 with SQUID 2.7 stable 3, one of them act as origin for the two squid instances, hence one squid installation co-exist on the same box with IIS application and web site, the two squid works as expected as long as ICP and cache hierarchy is not used, only one cache_peer as parent and origin.
To enhance the site performance we decide to use ICP and make one server use the second server squid as its sibling with proxy-only option, we always get ICP_MISS in the cache log even though we are sure the URL is cached in the first SQUID cache!, the below are the configuration:
First off 'proxy-only' is probably not a good choice in these
circumstances. It prevents any sibling fetched objects being cached, yet
you are caching objects direct from the parent. You _want_ the fastest
possible response in an accelerator, which means caching.
Secondly you are not doing a clear accelerator. For your cofiguration
below to work, something funky has to be going one with either DNS or
URL re-writers which breaks any possibility of siblingship.
See below for a description of the problem.
See
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/ReverseProxy#head-7fa129a6528d9a5c914f8dd5671668173e39e341
for a demo config of how accelerators should be configured.
Server1 (Origin with IIS site and SQUID cache), IP 10.10.0.191:
cache_peer 10.11.0.197 parent 80 0 no-query originserver
acl usasite dstdomain 10.10.0.191
You sure clients are really asking for "http://10.10.0.191/"; ??
cache_peer_access 10.11.0.197 allow usasite
cache_peer_access 10.11.0.197 deny all
http_access allow usasite
icp_port 3130
icp_access allow all
Server2(IP 10.10.10.16):
http_port 10.10.10.16:80 accel defaultsite=10.10.10.16
So your domain name is not "10.10.0.191" but "10.10.10.16" now?
cache_peer 10.10.0.191 sibling 80 3130 proxy-only
cache_peer 10.11.0.197 parent 80 0 no-query originserver
acl usasite dstdomain 10.10.10.16
Must be, but the sibling Server1 doesn't know or accept the domain name
when asked for "http://10.10.10.16/";
cache_peer_access 10.11.0.197 allow usasite
cache_peer_access 10.11.0.197 deny all
cache_peer_access 10.10.0.191 allow usasite
cache_peer_access 10.10.0.191 deny all
http_access allow usasite
icp_port 3130
icp_access allow all
