Thank you Vincent for your answer.

Unfortunately, I already looked at mod_proxy... and it is not doing more than
mod_jk, at least on the topic I'm interested in. The Balancer manager enables
dynamic update of balancer members already present (setting the lb factor to shut them down for
exemple), what I need is a dynamic update of the balancer members list (Add or
remove members of that list).

The link you gave is a very good article. thank you.

But I have to constantly stop and start Tomcat instances on different machines (via a script) for different reasons. I would like to know if there is a way to write a client that would tell Apache HTTP Server that a new worker is available or an other one is down so Apache HTTP Server can load balance the request accordingly.

I don't know mod_jk but if you were to switch to mod_proxy_ajp and mod_proxy_balancer you'd be able to use the balancer manager interface. This might help too:
