switching from nginx to LSLB

[Clockwork]

Hello,

I would like to switch from nginx to lslb, but I need help with the configuration

I'm currently using this nginx configuration:


upstream xyz {
server 192.168.0.4 weight=5;
server 192.168.0.3 weight=3;
server 127.0.0.1:81 weight=1;
}

server { # simple reverse-proxy
listen 80;
server_name www.xyz.com;

# upload fix
client_max_body_size 12m;

# serve static files
location ~ /(images|customavatars|customprofilepics|customgrou picons|signaturepics|albums|attachments|clientscri pt|iconimages|vbulletin_css|vbseo_sitemap)/ {
root /var/www/xyz/httpdocs/forum;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:81;
}

# sitemaps
location ~ /sitemap_ {
root /var/www/xyz/httpdocs/forum;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:81;
}

# pass requests for dynamic content to rails/turbogears/zope, et al
location / {
proxy_pass http://xyz;
}


I've just did this tutorial: http://www.wowtutorial.org/tutorial/80.html

but there isn't mentioned how to use the "Content aware: route request based on request content" feature.

From your nginx configuration, I guess you want to route requests based on URL.

For sitemap and static file, create a cluster with one member 127.0.0.1:81, then create a regex matching context, use that cluster as handler.

Create a cluster with members 192.168.0.4,192.168.0.3,127.0.0.1:81, use it as default cluster.

could you give me an example screenshot on that context thingy? or a link to the documentation?

For online help, please click the "Help" link in the web console, then go to "Configuration"->"Context"

It is very simple if you familiar with our web server admin console.
Just like a proxy context for web server.
The URI should be like

exp: ^/(images|customavatars|customprofilepics|customgrou picons|signaturepics|albums|attachments|clientscri pt|iconimages|vbulletin_css|vbseo_sitemap)/You can combine it with '~ /sitemap_' or create another context for it, just like the nginx configuration.
