You could disable health checking completely if you have no need for it. Just remove all monitors from the GTM pool and uncheck Verify Virtual Server Availability in the pool configuration. The wide IP will still respond without health checking.
- AllrecipesDCO_1Apr 11, 2014NimbostratusAwesome, thanks Cory! I just tested and this appears to work. I'll use this workaround for now, until I can find some way to get the LTM and GTM to communicate properly.
- Cory_50405Apr 11, 2014NoctilucentIs there a reason you want to pursue having a monitor on this pool if all you are doing is redirecting to other virtual servers that (hopefully) have health checking enabled? I guess I see this as more of a permanent solution versus just a work around but I'm also looking in from the outside. I'm sure you have your reasons.
- AllrecipesDCO_1Apr 15, 2014NimbostratusI'd prefer to have the GTM actively notifying me if it's unable to send traffic there, rather than bypassing the health check and assuming that the iRule is doing its job, but I see your point, too. I guess it's more of a peace-of-mind thing for me.
