<h3>Summary</h3>

<p>
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_heartmonitor.html">mod_heartmonitor</a></code> listens for server status messages generated
by <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_heartbeat.html">mod_heartbeat</a></code> enabled origin servers and makes their status
available to <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_lbmethod_heartbeat.html">mod_lbmethod_heartbeat</a></code>. This allows
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass">ProxyPass</a></code> to use the "heartbeat"
<em>lbmethod</em> inside of <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass">ProxyPass</a></code>.
</p>

<p>This module uses the services of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_slotmem_shm.html">mod_slotmem_shm</a></code> when
available instead of flat-file storage.  No configuration is required to
use <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_slotmem_shm.html">mod_slotmem_shm</a></code>.</p>

    <div class="warning">
        To use <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_heartmonitor.html">mod_heartmonitor</a></code>,
        <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_status.html">mod_status</a></code> and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_watchdog.html">mod_watchdog</a></code>
        must be either a static modules or, if a dynamic module, it must
        be loaded before <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_heartmonitor.html">mod_heartmonitor</a></code>.

    <p>The <code class="directive">HeartbeatListen</code> directive specifies the

    <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_heartbeat.html">mod_heartbeat</a></code>-enabled servers.  This
    address will usually correspond to a configured  <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_heartbeat.html#heartbeataddress">HeartbeatAddress</a></code> on an origin server.

    <p>The <code class="directive">HeartbeatMaxServers</code> directive specifies the
    maximum number of servers that will be sending requests to this monitor
    server.  It is used to control the size of the shared memory allocated
    to store the heartbeat info when <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_slotmem_shm.html">mod_slotmem_shm</a></code> is in use.</p>
    <p>For using flat-file storage (without loading <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_slotmem_shm.html">mod_slotmem_shm</a></code>),
    this must be set to 0. The value must be either 0, or bigger or equals 10.</p>
