Native Components Installation
This procedure assumes httpd was already installed, configured, and it works well without mod_cluster.
At the time of the writing, the pre-compiled native components to be installed within an existing httpd are published on the download page as "mod_cluster modules for httpd". For example, the mod_cluster binaries for Linux x86 httpd are listed as "linux-x86_64 mod_cluster binaries". The file name is mod_cluster-1.3.1.Final-linux2-x64-so.tar.gz. It contains the pre-compiled httpd dynamic libraries (mod_advertise.so, mod_cluster_slotmem.so, mod_manager.so and mod_proxy_cluster.so).
Place the Dynamic Libraries in the modules Directory
Identify the httpd instance's module directory, by looking at the existing LoadModule directives specified in the configuration. It is usually /etc/httpd/modules.
It is good practice to include the mod_cluster version in the name of the dynamic library files, to make it obvious what version is used.
cp mod_advertise.so /etc/httpd/modules/mod_advertise-1.3.1.Final.so cp mod_cluster_slotmem.so /etc/httpd/modules/mod_cluster_slotmem-1.3.1.Final.so cp mod_manager.so /etc/httpd/modules/mod_manager-1.3.1.Final.so cp mod_proxy_cluster.so /etc/httpd/modules/mod_proxy_cluster-1.3.1.Final.so
Make sure the newly copied files have the same ownership and permissions as the existing modules.
Load Modules at Startup
A standard RHEL httpd installation has its modules configured in /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d. All files present in that directory are automatically included from httpd.conf:
... Include conf.modules.d/*.conf ...
