run its own instance as well. Multiple Apache instance configuration can either be done as a local configuration or shared configuration or a combination of both.
Configuring the Apache Web Server with Serviceguard
To manage an Apache Web Server by Serviceguard, the default Apache configuration needs to be modified. Before creating and configuring Serviceguard packages, make sure that the following configurations have been completed for the Apache Web Server application for all cluster nodes:
When the Apache Server is installed, the default instance may be automatically configured to be started during system startup via the runlevel (rc) script "hpws22_apacheconf" in the /etc/rc.config.d/ directory by setting "HPWS22_APACHE_START=1". You should make sure this is disabled by setting "HPWS22_APACHE_START=0".
The httpd.conf file associated with the default Apache instance has a Listen directive "Listen 80", which is equivalent to listening for all IP addresses at port 80. If an Apache instance needs to be configured so that it listens to specific IP Addresses, this has to be changed to "Listen <IP Address> <Port>”.
NOTE: The default configuration file is available at: /opt/hpws22/apache/conf/httpd.conf
You should disable the automatic start of the standard Apache default installation if Apache is run from Serviceguard so that nothing is running on the server at the system startup time.
You must create a separate, distinct SERVER_ROOT directory for each Apache Serviceguard package.
You must configure all Apache instances to listen to package
Listen 192.168.0.1:80
Listen 192.168.0.2:80
NameVirtualHost 192.168.0.2:80
<VirtualHost web.site1.url:80> ServerName web.site1.url
<VirtualHost web.site2.url:80> ServerName web.site2.url
Local Configuration
For a local configuration, install and configure Apache in the same location on the primary and all backup nodes and set up identical (or equivalent) configuration files in the same server root directory on all nodes. Also, all document root directories must exist on all nodes and should contain identical files.
For a shared configuration, typically configure document root directory on shared file system. Note that one or more shared file systems may be used. Ensure that all required components which are on shared storage will be available at the same time. (It is not mandatory to place the SERVER_ROOT directory on a shared file system in order to make use of shared storage. Choose a local SERVER_ROOT directory for configuration files and place only the document root directories on a shared file system. However, configure identical SERVER_ROOT directories and identical configuration files on all nodes.)
