I
didn't get any response to this emai (for taking a worker out of the load
balance worker), so I created a patch for mod_jk.
The
patch allows for a worker.name.active parameter to be added to the
workers.property file.
If the
active parameter = 1, worker will accept new connections as per SOP (this is
also the default state, so if the parameter is not in the file it still works,
or if the value is anything other then 0 it still
works...)
If the
active parameter = 0, the worker will continue to service existing sessions, but
will not accept new sessions.
Now
all we need is a way to determine actives sessions in a worker...
Not
sure if the format is _exactly_ what you require as this is my first patch.
Comments?

Subject: gracefull shutdown/removal of worker from load balance...Hello all,
How do I remove a worker from the load balancer without killing its current sessions?i.e.: I don't want any new sessions created on that worker, and the existing sessions must be allowed to expire 'naturally'
(I can't just delete the entry from the balanced_workers property of the load balancer or current/established sessions get killed/ are not redirected to the
proper worker)
Our setup: We've got multiple Apache web servers behind LVS with multiple TC(3.2) boxes behind the web servers...
Thanks in advance....
