Hi,

How can I check if any of the backend process is down using this script? Thanks.

Thanks,
Govind

Hi,

The --proxy allow you to specify either a frontend, or a backend.

You may use something like:

./check_haproxy_stats.pl --socket /var/lib/haproxy/stats --proxy my_backend

This will return:

Check haproxy OK - checked proxies: my_backend

@tatref Thanks. Does the backend looks only for the servers or also the services running on the backends? Please suggest .Thanks.

There is not really a notion of service, haproxy checks for the backend by doing a TCP connection. See https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduction-to-haproxy-and-load-balancing-concepts
