multi tier health based load balancing
Hello all,
Ok I am kidna stuck how to aproach this. I have a requiment to load balance based on a return code provided by the backend application server. I can check if it is there or not based on a web GET monitor no problem , however the customer would liek a 3rd option next to up/down and that is "going down" allowing open sessions to finish but new once to terminate on other pool member.
now I suspect to use an irule to control states of the pool memebr but I cant find a good starting point and as such i am reaching out for some help.
The health check will return 3 values for all intensive purposes :
Green all good host usable
Yellow application is being scheduled to go down only excisting sessions may continue
Red not available.
Obviouslly the first and last are easy but how do I do the second one ?
