Understanding load balance / heartbeat
Hello,
I'm missing some understanding of how heartbeat / load balancing works.. I've been researching and reading tutorials and can't seem to put it together in my head..
Question #1. When heartbeat is configured, do I tell it what services to monitor? Or does it monitor the whole server as a whole?
(my application will be fail over between the load balancers) (Load balancer will be directing traffic to my 2 squids.)
Question #2. How does it balance the load between the squids? ieee. send one connection to squid1 then second connection squid2?
Question #3. What is the best way to tell that load balancing is working properly?
