Lets say I have 1 x nginx front end servers which load balances to 2 x app server and requires session persistence.



I can set up an upstream group like this.



upstream backend {



hash $request_uri consistent;
server backend1;
server backend2;
}



If the requests always have a HTTP header called say "x-user-name", I was hoping that I could do this:



hash $http_x_user_name consistent;



but it doesn't seem to work for me..



Does anyone know if this should work? or what variables are available in the upstream context?



I've tried $sent_http_x_user_name and also $upstream_http_x_user_name also.



Would appreciate any help!



NOTE: nginx opensource only.. not pro as I would use 'sticky' if I had the option.
