Forced offline and log entries

Hi,

I am just trying to figure out log entries for setting pool member to Forced offline. System VE 11.2.0HF7, pool member is associated with few pools, option Apply new state to all pool member instances checked for Forced offline, pool member has no monitors associated. In log I can see such sequence:

Feb 13 14:37:48 bigip11 notice mcpd[6068]: 01070807:5: Monitor /Common/none instance 10.128.20.11:6666 has been disabled.
Feb 13 14:37:48 bigip11 notice mcpd[6068]: 01070639:5: Pool /Common/RD0_WWW1 member /Common/RD0_Node01:80 session status forced disabled.
Feb 13 14:37:48 bigip11 notice mcpd[6068]: 01070638:5: Pool /Common/RD0_WWW1 member /Common/RD0_Node01:80 monitor status forced down. [ was unchecked for 0hr:0min:25sec ]

First I have no idea what first line means - what is monitor with port 6666?

Why there are two entries:

status forced disabled

status forced down

Is member first disabled and then forced offline? Are those normal entries when Force offline is used?

RD0_Node01 = 10.128.20.11

    Kevin,

     

    Thanks for pointing me out, good sol. Still it is not explaining what is instance 10.128.20.11:6666 - why port 6666? There is nothing like that assigned to pool member - as I mentioned member has no monitor assigned.

      Greetings Piotr, there must be something in the config with that port you could check the configuration file first: grep 6666 /config/bigip.conf Then if not there, check the running configuration: tmsh list ltm | grep 6666 Kevin

      Hi, Thanks for info, unfortunately both commands are not returning results. So some mystery here. I wonder what Monitor /Common/none - especially "none" means in this log entry. Piotr
