Remove active connections from backup system after return to normal

Hi Al,

 

 

Do you want to do this automatically or manually? If manually, you could use 'b conn' to delete the connection table entries for this virtual server (or pool member). For an automatic solution, you could try something like this:

 

 

1. Track when a low priority pool member is selected

 

2. After a low priority pool member is selected and then a higher priority pool member is selected for a new connection, log some special message to syslog-ng

 

3. Use a custom user_alert.conf entry which calls a shell script that uses 'b conn' to delete the relevant connection table entries.

 

 

If the latter option is one you want to explore I can try to give you more detail on how you could do this. If anyone else has a more elegant solution, please reply.
