Hello Guys!
Thank you for your help that was before!
Could you explain somethings - For example I have a five cache_peer servers
peer1
peer2
peer3
peer4
And users like:
User-100
User-101
For forwarding requests over existed cache_peer I use an external ACL
and "note" option - all works well.
Now I'd like to implement the next logic:
This is something like a failover of specified cache_peers for specified
user.
If your external ACL can tell whether the peer has "failed", then the
external ACL can annotate the transaction not to use that failed peer.
Otherwise, what you want may be possible using complex ACL tricks, but I
am not sure, and do not have the time to explain/test those tricks. In
short, you would need to create ACLs that detect peer selection stage[1]
and select a different peer during different stages.

FWIW, dynamic peer selection with failover preference support is a known
missing feature. Factory has implemented that feature[2], but we need
more time to polish and submit our implementation for the official Squid
Project consideration. With that feature, there is no need for the
complex ACLs mentioned above because the ACL script simply tells Squid
which peers to use for the transaction, in which failover order.
[2] https://github.com/measurement-factory/squid/pull/169
For example:
We send User-100 over peer1, if peer1 is failed - that User-100 must to
go over peer2.
Without code modifications, the above example will work because Squid
will prefer peer1 to peer2, assuming that, in squid.conf, the cache_peer
directive for peer1 is listed higher/earlier than that for peer2.
For User-101 - something like - primary will be peer4, if its failed
User-101 must to go over peer3.
However, this example will _not_ work by default, for the same reason:
When both peers are alive, Squid will prefer peer3 over peer4.
HTH,
Alex.
its something like primary and multiple of backup of cache_peer
etc....
Thank you !
