== Mongrel Cluster Plugin
Tool to help start/stop/restart multiple mongrel servers to use behind a load balancer like Apache 2.2 (mod_proxy_balancer), Lighttpd, Pound, Pen or Balance. This plugin adds an option to specify a number of Mongrel servers to launch, a range of ports, and a configuration file for the cluster. Use "-h" to see command syntax.
Configure cluster and write configuration file:
mongrel_rails cluster::configure
Start cluster:
mongrel_rails cluster::start
Restart cluster:
mongrel_rails cluster::restart
Stop cluster:
mongrel_rails cluster::stop
Capistrano Recipe
Add to config/deploy.rb:
require 'mongrel_cluster/recipes'
Example usage:
cap -a configure_mongrel_cluster
Variables
mongrel_servers: Number of Mongrel servers to start.
mongrel_port: Starting port to bind to.
mongrel_address: Address to bind to.
mongrel_environment: Rails environment to run as.

stop_mongrel_cluster: Stop the Mongrel processes on the app server.
restart_mongrel_cluster: Restart the Mongrel processes on the app server by starting and stopping mongrel_cluster.
