# Configuration file for varnish
#
# /etc/init.d/varnish expects the variables $DAEMON_OPTS, $NFILES and $MEMLOCK
# to be set from this shell script fragment.
#
# Should we start varnishd at boot? Set to "no" to disable.
START=yes
# Maximum number of open files (for ulimit -n)
NFILES=131072
# Maximum locked memory size (for ulimit -l)
# Used for locking the shared memory log in memory. If you increase log size,
# you need to increase this number as well
MEMLOCK=82000
# Default varnish instance name is the local nodename. Can be overridden with
# the -n switch, to have more instances on a single server.
# INSTANCE=$(uname -n)
# This file contains 4 alternatives, please use only one.
## Alternative 1, Minimal configuration, no VCL
#
# Listen on port 6081, administration on localhost:6082, and forward to
# content server on localhost:8080. Use a 1GB fixed-size cache file.
#

# -T localhost:6082 \
# -b localhost:8080 \
# -u varnish -g varnish \
# -S /etc/varnish/secret \
# -s file,/var/lib/varnish/$INSTANCE/varnish_storage.bin,1G"
## Alternative 2, Configuration with VCL
#
# Listen on port 80, administration on (localhost:6082)x :6082, and forward to
# one content server selected by the vcl file, based on the request. Use a 10GB
# fixed-size cache file.

DAEMON_OPTS="-a :80,:443 \
-T localhost:6082 \
