Manage a Varnish instance
Synopsis
varnish [start | stop | status | monitor | meta-data | validate-all]
Description
The Varnish Resource Agent can manage several varnishd instances throughout the cluster. It does so by creating a unique PID file and requires a unique listen address and name for each instance.
Supported Parameters
- config
- The VCL configuration file that Varnish should manage, for example "/etc/varnish/default.vcl". - (unique, required, string, no default) 
- name
- Override the name of the instance that should be given to Varnish (defaults to the resource identifier). - (unique, optional, string, default "RESOURCE_ID") 
- pid
- Write the process's PID to the specified file. The default will include the specified name, i.e.: "/var/run/varnish_production.pid". Unlike what this help message shows, it is most likely not necessary to change this parameter. - (unique, optional, string, default "/var/run/varnishd_RESOURCE_ID.pid") 
- listen_address
- Listen on this address:port, for example "192.168.1.1:80" - (unique, optional, string, default "0.0.0.0:80") 
- mgmt_address
- Provide a management interface, for example "127.0.0.1:2222" - (unique, required, string, no default) 
- ttl
- Specify a hard minimum time to live for cached documents. - (optional, integer, default 600) 
- varnish_user
- Specify the name of an unprivileged user to which the child process should switch before it starts accepting connections. - (optional, string, default "varnish") 
- varnish_group
- Specify the name of an unprivileged group to which the child process should switch before it starts accepting connections. - (optional, string, default "varnish") 
- backend_type
- Use the specified storage backend. Valid options are 'malloc' for memory and 'file' for a file backend. - (optional, string, default "malloc") 
- backend_size
- Specify the size of the backend. For example "1G". - (optional, string, default "1G") 
- backend_file
- Specify the backend filename if you use backend_type file. For example /var/lib/varnish/mybackend.bin - (unique, optional, string, default "/var/lib/varnish/RESOURCE_ID.bin") 
- threads_pools
- Number of worker thread pools. Each pool has the minimum, maximum and timeout values configured in the thread_pool_min, thread_pool_max and thread_pool_timeout parameters - (optional, string, default "2") 
- thread_pool_min
- Start at least min but no more than max worker threads with the specified idle timeout in each pool. - (optional, string, default "100") 
- thread_pool_max
- Start at least min but no more than max worker threads with the specified idle timeout in each pool. - (optional, string, default "3000") 
- thread_pool_timeout
- Start at least min but no more than max worker threads with the specified idle timeout in each pool. - (optional, string, default "120") 
- client_binary
- This is used to control Varnish via a CLI. It's currently only used to check the status of the running child process. - (optional, string, default "varnishadm") 
- maxfiles
- Maximum number of open files (for ulimit -n) - (optional, string, default "131072") 
- max_locked_memory
- Locked shared memory limit (for ulimit -l) - (optional, string, default "82000") 
- secret
- Path to a file containing a secret used for authorizing access to the management port. - (optional, string, default "/etc/varnish/secret") 
Supported Actions
This resource agent supports the following actions (operations):
- start
- Starts the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s. 
- stop
- Stops the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s. 
- monitor
- Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s. Suggested interval: 10s. 
- status
- Performs a status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s. 
- meta-data
- Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested minimum timeout: 5s. 
- validate-all
- Performs a validation of the resource configuration. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s.
