Check HaProxy Configuration

Project Notes

1. Alerts if someone has made a erroneous modification to the syntax.
2. Alerts if a Load-Balanced member is no longer reachable via DNS name (This was beneficial when identifying dead members before restarting HaProxy)
3. Alerts if the haproxy.cfg file size is above a threshold (in bytes).

Performance data output included by default.
