mod_cluster health checks

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Is there any way mod_cluster can verify the health of a JBoss node before proxying a request to it?
  • mod_cluster is still sending requests to unresponsive JBoss instances.
  • We executed a Heap Dump and it caused downtime' seconds. Why does it happen? We have mod_cluster, which should detect this and change the node, isn't it?

Environment

  • JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 6.x
  • JBoss Enterprise Web Server (EWS) 2.x
  • Apache httpd
  • mod_cluster
