health checks with SNI/virtual hosts (4 replies)

I'm trying to do health checks on a site that is served with SNI - so going directly to the IP generates a 404 - the backend server is looking for the hostname to determine which site to send it to.

Is it correct to put the full URL in the httpchk section, like so?
_______________________________
backend foo
mode http
option forwardfor
balance roundrobin
option httplog
option httpchk https://my.URL.here/
cookie BEserver insert
server foo1 192.168.123.123:443 ssl cookie foo1 maxconn 5000 check
server foo1 192.168.123.124:443 ssl cookie foo2 maxconn 5000 check
_______________________________

It's not clear to me if that will actually check each backend server, or if it will only try to fetch that URL, which may not be the correct backend.

Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. Thank you!

Jim
