NimbostratusStandalone and Cluster Sevices
Hi, i have two F5 units running in Standalone mode with different services, but i need to make a Active-Standby HA Configuration with clusterized services in another partition. Whta will happen with the Standalone services? There still will be available even if the machine is in Standby status?
You can have an active-active configuration using Traffic Groups. One traffic group will hold one partition's objects, and it can be active on any device you want. Another traffic group will hold the objects of the second partition. You can have both traffic groups active on one single device, or one per device, and still have failover.
Start with https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/13000/600/sol13639.html?sr=51222283 and feel free to ask questions. The system is pretty sophisticated and flexible, and can support up to 32 devices in a cluster, and you can have pretty much any combination of active/standby across 32 devices as you wish. I have to admit though, that past 4 devices, the number of permutations becomes too much for my puny brain to handle.
