apache scoreboard

1 apache scordboard的含义是什么?
2 我们的业务流程是这样的:(1)client ------->(2)apache2.2.10_mod-proxy------->(3)apache2.2.10_mod-loadbalancer------>background-tomcat-server
在(2)------->(3)的过程中apache的日志出现了:
[error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(57) failed in child 30560 for worker proxy:reverse
迫切希望得到你的帮助。谢谢
