BIG-IP awareness of VM vmotion from one DC to the other
Hi,
We have twin DCs active/active and I would like to know if BIG-IP WOM on 2 LTM BIG-IP load balancers (each load balancer in each DC), could be aware that a VM has moved from one DC to the other.
If Load balancer in DC-A is sending traffic to a VM in DC-A and we move that VM from DC-A to DC-B. I would like to know if with LTM Big-IP WOM, load Balancer in DC-A will detect that the VM is now in DC-B and stop sending traffic to that VM. Then Load Balancer in DC-B will detect the new VM and start to send traffic to that VM in DC-B.
Can Big-IP LTM do this without the need of a GTM? We have a cloud solution site selector that we must maintain that sends 50% of the traffic to each DC. How the GTM will fit in our solution?
Thank you very much for your time and attention.

JJBN
What hardware/version are you running? The LTM/GTM/WOM triple-play is supported with some restrictions - check this link http://support.f5.com/content/dam/f5/kb/global/solutions/sol10288_images.html/big-ip-product-matrix-v35.pdf
