balance leastconn

mode http

option httpchk /serverup

http-check expect status 200

server webserver1 192.168.100.101:80 check inter 3s fall 3 rise 5 downinter 1m

server webserver2 192.168.100.102:80 check inter 3s fall 3 rise 5 downinter 1m

some servers requires also the host header.

can you try the following line for the check

option httpchk HEAD /serverup\n\rHost: your-backend-http-hostname\n\r\n\r
