    Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

    HAProxy provides load balancing and reverse proxy capabilities for both HTTP and TCP requests. The HAProxy checks remove backend servers that fail several health checks in a row, and transfer incoming traffic to backend servers as part of load balancing.

    Procedimento

    1. Access the HAProxy configuration file, located at: /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg.
    2. Add the following to the bottom of the file: 
      listen frontend *:8080       #Haproxy 
Monitoring run on port 8080
mode http
option forwardfor
option httpclose
stats enable
stats show-legends
stats refresh 5s
stats uri /stats        #URL for HAProxy monitoring
stats realm Haproxy\Statistics.   #Title for pop up window
stats auth admin:admin     #User and Password for login to the monitoring dashboard
stats admin if TRUE
default_backend backend       #This is optional for monitoring backend
    3. Run the following command to restart the HAProxy:
      sudo service haproxy restart
    4. View the HAProxy metrics on your system by viewing the HAProxy metrics stats page, accessible from the following URL:
      http://<HAProxyServer>:8080/stats
