Pool member track-group setting

Hello.

 

Brocade Serveriron ADX Equipment Engineer, An engineer who has been discontinued and changed to the F5 LTM solution.

 

Searching for functions in the F5 LTM solution at the F5 LTM Solution I ask for help because it is difficult to find.

 

When one of the pool members falls down, all members fall down.

 

Does this mean anything like this in F5? If you do, please let me know the function.

 

Thank you very much.

  • Hello Seong,

     

    You can specify from the pool configuration the feature "at least x pool member up".

     

    If you have 4 pool members, you set it to "at least 4" in that way if one of the pool member goes down => the pool goes down.

     

    Try it and let us know.

     

    Regards

     

  • Hi,

    You can create one monitor per server with property

    address alias
    Set to the server ip.

    Then, enable all pool members monitors in pool monitors.

  • Hi Seong,

     

    You can try both the methods suggested by JTI and Stan, both have the same result.

     

    The Logic behind JTI,

     

    You pool is having 4 members. And you are setting a condition for the pool to send traffic when atleast 4 members should be UP.

     

    The Logic behind Stan,

     

    There is an inbuilt feature in F5 Monitor where you specify which server address and port needs to be monitored, here you can input your primary severs address and port. Based on this servers availability the remaining servers status will change.
