Hi, I am working on Load Balancing for my websites… I got this: upstream backend { ny1 192.241.143.207; ny2 162.243.27.154; sf1 162.243.133.133; } The servers host like 7 sites each(all the same files)… What do I put in here: ny1 { location / { proxy_pass http://backend; <-- here } }

Oh wait! I’ll take a gamble that ny1,ny2,sf1 needs to be server as in the tutorial. I thought it was placeholder.
You don’t need all of these server blocks. You need only one upstream block and server block.
