There are a few remaining max values that need to move to counters.
Also, the counters are more often used than some config information,
so get them closer to the other useful struct members for better cache
efficiency.
Some users want to keep the max sessions/s seen on servers, frontends
and backends for capacity planning. It's easy to grab it while the
session count is updated, so let's keep it.
With this change, all frontends, backends, and servers maintain a session
counter and a timer to compute a session rate over the last second. This
value will be very useful because it varies instantly and can be used to
check thresholds. This value is also reported in the stats in a new "rate"
column.
This patch adds two new variables: fastinter and downinter.
When server state is:
- non-transitionally UP -> inter (no change)
- transitionally UP (going down), unchecked or transitionally DOWN (going up) -> fastinter
- down -> downinter
It allows to set something like:
server sr6 127.0.51.61:80 cookie s6 check inter 10000 downinter 20000 fastinter 500 fall 3 weight 40
In the above example haproxy uses 10000ms between checks but as soon as
one check fails fastinter (500ms) is used. If server is down
downinter (20000) is used or fastinter (500ms) if one check pass.
Fastinter is also used when haproxy starts.
New "timeout.check" variable was added, if set haproxy uses it as an additional
read timeout, but only after a connection has been already established. I was
thinking about using "timeout.server" here but most people set this
with an addition reserve but still want checks to kick out laggy servers.
Please also note that in most cases check request is much simpler
and faster to handle than normal requests so this timeout should be smaller.
I also changed the timeout used for check connections establishing.
Changes from the previous version:
- use tv_isset() to check if the timeout is set,
- use min("timeout connect", "inter") but only if "timeout check" is set
as this min alone may be to short for full (connect + read) check,
- debug code (fprintf) commented/removed
- documentation
Compile tested only (sorry!) as I'm currently traveling but changes
are rather small and trivial.
Hello,
This patch implements new statistics for SLA calculation by adding new
field 'Dwntime' with total down time since restart (both HTTP/CSV) and
extending status field (HTTP) or inserting a new one (CSV) with time
showing how long each server/backend is in a current state. Additionaly,
down transations are also calculated and displayed for backends, so it is
possible to know how many times selected backend was down, generating "No
server is available to handle this request." error.
New information are presentetd in two different ways:
- for HTTP: a "human redable form", one of "100000d 23h", "23h 59m" or
"59m 59s"
- for CSV: seconds
I believe that seconds resolution is enough.
As there are more columns in the status page I decided to shrink some
names to make more space:
- Weight -> Wght
- Check -> Chk
- Down -> Dwn
Making described changes I also made some improvements and fixed some
small bugs:
- don't increment s->health above 's->rise + s->fall - 1'. Previously it
was incremented an then (re)set to 's->rise + s->fall - 1'.
- do not set server down if it is down already
- do not set server up if it is up already
- fix colspan in multiple places (mostly introduced by my previous patch)
- add missing "status" header to CSV
- fix order of retries/redispatches in server (CSV)
- s/Tthen/Then/
- s/server/backend/ in DATA_ST_PX_BE (dumpstats.c)
Changes from previous version:
- deal with negative time intervales
- don't relay on s->state (SRV_RUNNING)
- little reworked human_time + compacted format (no spaces). If needed it
can be used in the future for other purposes by optionally making "cnt"
as an argument
- leave set_server_down mostly unchanged
- only little reworked "process_chk: 9"
- additional fields in CSV are appended to the rigth
- fix "SEC" macro
- named arguments (human_time, be_downtime, srv_downtime)
Hope it is OK. If there are only cosmetic changes needed please fill free
to correct it, however if there are some bigger changes required I would
like to discuss it first or at last to know what exactly was changed
especially since I already put this patch into my production server. :)
Thank you,
Best regards,
Krzysztof Oledzki
The files are now stored under :
- include/haproxy for the generic includes
- include/types.h for the structures needed within prototypes
- include/proto.h for function prototypes and inline functions
- src/*.c for the C files
Most include files are now covered by LGPL. A last move still needs
to be done to put inline functions under GPL and not LGPL.
Version has been set to 1.3.0 in the code but some control still
needs to be done before releasing.
