I have two queries
1. I have one Virtual Server and there's no room add another.
This VS receives requests for two host names (say www.one.mydomai.com and www.two.mydomai.com ).
Also I have different applications deployed which are accessible from above domains (with different context rules).
When app1 is under maintenance I want to put up maintenance page for "www.one.mydomai.com/app1" requests and other apps must be accessible during this time. Also I do not want to have maintenance-rules for each domain/ app combination, but one generic maintenance rule.
What I'm thinking is to maintain an extra file like below.
www.one.mydomai.com/app1=app1maintenance.html
www.one.mydomai.com/app2=app2maintenance.html
www.two.mydomai.com/app1=app1maintenance.html
www.two.mydomai.com/app2=app2maintenance.html
And from a rule put up the matching maintenance page like below. (psedo code)
Read the extra property file above
for each line # i.e. key=value
if host-name + path contains key
bring up the page - value
Is there any better way to do this?
2. Is it possible to pass parameters for a rule. - i.e. Like we can provide init parameters for Java extensions?
