Allow the user to set the "initial state" of a server. Context: Servers are always set in an UP status by default. In some cases, further checks are required to determine if the server is ready to receive client traffic. This introduces the "init-state {up|down}" configuration parameter to the server. - when set to 'fully-up', the server is considered immediately available and can turn to the DOWN sate when ALL health checks fail. - when set to 'up' (the default), the server is considered immediately available and will initiate a health check that can turn it to the DOWN state immediately if it fails. - when set to 'down', the server initially is considered unavailable and will initiate a health check that can turn it to the UP state immediately if it succeeds. - when set to 'fully-down', the server is initially considered unavailable and can turn to the UP state when ALL health checks succeed. The server's init-state is considered when the HAProxy instance is (re)started, a new server is detected (for example via service discovery / DNS resolution), a server exits maintenance, etc. Link: https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/issues/51 |

HAProxy
HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable reverse-proxy offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications.
Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
The discourse and the mailing-list are available for questions or configuration assistance. You can also use the slack or IRC channel. Please don't use the issue tracker for these.
The issue tracker is only for bug reports or feature requests.
Documentation
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. It is available in text format as well as HTML. The wiki is also meant to replace the old architecture guide.
