- Firehed 14y agoWe didn't have enough servers behind it to really deal with dead servers, to be honest. Seemed to detect a failed server and route around it quickly enough, and we have monitoring per server in place to go in and reboot the thing or whatever. The configs are pretty straightforward, but might get a little nuts if you're dealing with hundreds of servers behind the thing. I don't have to wear a sysadmin hat too frequently (thank god) but when I did it was pretty easy to deal with. Huge fan of the fact that reloading the config would perform a configtest automatically before trying to apply the new settings. I don't know why all software doesn't do this.
