BEA Weblogic and specific failover using iRules
Can anybody out there help me???????
I need to be able to query a string in the HTTP header to determine the persistamce to a server, and it's corresponding backup (v9.0.4)
I will expand on this:
BEA WEblogic uses a JSESSIONID in the HTTP header to determine which server holds the primary connection and which server will be desingated a backup. I need to be able to load balance to any server, and interogate the JSESSIONID in the header in order to provide persistance, but (and here is the gotcha) I also need to be able to take the secondary server ID and use this to provide the fallback host scenario in the event of a primary server failure.
the JSESSIONID is constructed as
JSESSIONID=!!
where session ID is 52 characters long, and the primary/secondary IDs are 10 characters each.
How can I do this easily? (I know it is possible to force a designated backup for each primary server, but the customer does not want to have this level of administration on HIS head!!)
HELP!!!
