Hi Venkat,
if a node is marked as "down" by an monitor, then its comparable to set this node manually as "Force-offline", since it does not receive any new and even persistent sessions.
The
[LB::down]
command will force an fresh health monitor probe and would also mark the node temporary as "down" till the health monitor check has completed. The result of the health monitor will then keep the node "down" or flip it immediately back to "online". So i guess there is no benefit using this command...
What the is your detailed requirement and what missing when a monitor is marking a node as "down"? Should LTM also kill any ongoing sessions to this node?
Cheers, Kai
