haproxy Attributes

Important

The AWS OpsWorks Stacks service reached end of life on May 26, 2024 and has been disabled for both new and existing customers. We strongly recommend customers migrate their workloads to other solutions as soon as possible. If you have questions about migration, reach out to the AWS Support Team on AWS re:Post or through AWS Premium Support.

Note

These attributes are available only on Linux stacks.

The haproxy attributes specify the HAProxy server configuration. For more information, see HAProxy Docs. For more information on how to override built-in attributes to specify custom values, see Overriding Attributes.

balance

The algorithm used by a load balancer to select a server (string). The default value is 'roundrobin'. The other options are:

  • 'static-rr'

  • 'leastconn'

  • 'source'

  • 'uri'

  • 'url_param'

  • 'hdr(name)'

  • 'rdp-cookie'

  • 'rdp-cookie(name)'

For more information on these arguments, see balance.

The maximum amount of time that HAProxy will wait for a server connection attempt to succeed (string). The default value is '10s'.

node[:haproxy][:connect_timeout]
default_max_connections

The default maximum number of connections (string). The default value is '80000'.

node[:haproxy][:default_max_connections]
global_max_connections

The maximum number of connections (string). The default value is '80000'.

node[:haproxy][:global_max_connections]
health_check_method

The health check method (string). The default value is 'OPTIONS'.

node[:haproxy][:health_check_method]
health_check_url

The URL path that is used to check servers' health (string). The default value is '/'.

queue_timeout

The maximum wait time for a free connection (string). The default value is '120s'.

node[:haproxy][:queue_timeout]
http_request_timeout

The maximum amount of time that HAProxy will wait for a complete HTTP request (string). The default value is '30s'.

node[:haproxy][:http_request_timeout]
retries

The number of retries after server connection failure (string). The default value is '3'.

node[:haproxy][:retries]
server_timeout

The maximum amount of time that a client can be inactive (string). The default value is '60s'.

node[:haproxy][:server_timeout]
stats_url

The URL path for the statistics page (string). The default value is '/haproxy?stats'.

The maxcon attributes represent a load factor multiplier that is used to compute the maximum number of connections that HAProxy allows for backends. For example, suppose you have a Rails app server on a small instance with a backend value of 4, which means that AWS OpsWorks Stacks will configure four Rails processes for that instance. If you use the default maxcon_factor_rails_app value of 7, HAProxy will handle 28 (4*7) connections to the Rails server.

maxcon_factor_nodejs_app

The maxcon factor for a Node.js app server (number). The default value is 10.

node[:haproxy][:maxcon_factor_nodejs_app]
maxcon_factor_nodejs_app_ssl

The maxcon factor for a Node.js app server with SSL (number). The default value is 10.

node[:haproxy][:maxcon_factor_nodejs_app_ssl]
maxcon_factor_php_app

The maxcon factor for a PHP app server (number). The default value is 10.

node[:haproxy][:maxcon_factor_php_app]
maxcon_factor_php_app_ssl

The maxcon factor for a PHP app server with SSL (number). The default value is 10.

node[:haproxy][:maxcon_factor_php_app_ssl]
maxcon_factor_rails_app

The maxcon factor for a Rails app server (number). The default value is 7.

node[:haproxy][:maxcon_factor_rails_app]
maxcon_factor_rails_app_ssl

The maxcon factor for a Rails app server with SSL (number). The default value is 7.

node[:haproxy][:maxcon_factor_rails_app_ssl]

node[:haproxy][:maxcon_factor_static]
maxcon_factor_static_ssl
