Older versions of mod_jk tolerated putting JkMount in the global server,
not any vhost. All those mounts were automatically copied to all vhosts.
Since a couple of releases you actually have to put your JkMounts into
the VHosts, or use the JkMountCopy (On|All) construction. See JkMount
and JkMountCopy in

http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/apache.html

I suggest you make sure to use a recent version (most recent is 1.2.27)
and put your JkMount into the individual VHosts.

I think putting it above is not necessary, but you should in general

- put the JkMount inside the VHosts, or if appropriate use JkMountCopy
- decide whether you want a separate log file per VHost (then add a
JkLogFile with a separate filoe name to each vhost) or only one common
consolidated log file
- consider using rotatelogs for your JkLogFile. It works syntactically
the same way you use it with Apache ErrorLog.

The IfModule tags do not add any functionality except when the module is
not loaded (no LoadModule for mod_jk executed), apache ignore all parts
contained inside the IfModule. It allows you to switch faster between a
configuration using mod_jk and not using it. If you always want to use
it for this Apache, it adds a little unsafety, because if you forget to
load mod_jk, you won't get any error. Without the IfModule Apache will
complain, that it does not know about the Jk directives.
