Can we make status of virtual server to depend on no of member pool down ???

I have a virtual server V1 configured with 2 member pool on LTM1 of datacenter DC1 and another virtual server V2 with 2 member pool on LTM2 of another datacenter DC2. Both of these V1 as primary, VS2 as secondary on GTM, but at any given time V1 would process the request. V2 would process requests only incase V1 is not reachable or down on LTM1 level. Can we make status of virtual server V1 down in case any one of the member pool are down in LTM1?

  • Hi,

    It's not a real fix but it will make the work.

    Instead attached your pool to Default pool vs settings (Local Traffic ›› Virtual Servers : Virtual Server List ). Set an irule instead.

    So in your VS let your Default pool to none and create an Irule that call your pool.

    when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
         pool my_pool
    }
    

    in this case, status of virtual server will be blue and it does not inherit of pool status.

    You can try to do the same with policy and check if pool in policy inherit of pool status.

    Let me know if you need more details.

    regards

    This is not possible from the point of my knowledge.
