    Description

      MaxAttemps Documentation

      Number of times an httpd proxy will attempt to send a given request to a worker before giving up. The minimum value is 1, meaning try only once. (Note that mod_proxy default is also 1: no retry)
      

      Balancer is not behaving that way. Minimum that one can set is 0 that means "no retry" and overall the number there means how many times balancer should failover that request to another worker not how many (max)times balancer should sent the request to the workers (even the first one counts) as documentation stands.
