<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
    multicast address on which the server will listen for status information from 
    <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.

    <div class="example"><p><code>

    <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>The <code class="directive">HeartbeatStorage</code> directive specifies the
    path to store heartbeat data.  This flat-file is used only when
    <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_slotmem_shm.html">mod_slotmem_shm</a></code> is not loaded.</p>
