LB::status behavior

Hi Jose,

Your behaviour is normal, you have to set your node to disable an not force offline if you want to diferency this 2 status.

You can have 4 differents status:

• up
• down
• session_enabled
• session_disabled

If your node is down or you force it to "forced offline" it will mark down too. If your node is disable it will mark "session_disabled". ...

Check this article it will helpfull for you:

Irule example with node disable...

when HTTP_REQUEST {
set maintenance_mode [LB::status node 192.168.250.1 session_disabled]
if { ($maintenance_mode) } {
    HTTP::redirect "http://alternate.site.com/maintenance.html"
} 
}

Let me now if it's clear for you.
