upstream name should be unique per entire config, you could name it in<br>
nginx.conf and than reference to its name from different your includes.<br>
like:<br>
upstream loadbalancer {<br>
server <a href="http://192.168.0.1:8080" target="_blank">192.168.0.1:8080</a>;<br>
server <a href="http://192.168.0.2:8080" target="_blank">192.168.0.2:8080</a>;<br>
server <a href="http://192.168.0.3:8080" target="_blank">192.168.0.3:8080</a>;<br>
server <a href="http://192.168.0.4:8080" target="_blank">192.168.0.4:8080</a>;<br>
}<br>
<br>
than in certain location (in included file for example)<br>
proxy_pass <a href="http://loadbalancer" target="_blank">http://loadbalancer</a>;<br>
