F5 Health Monitor, Remote Server Maintenance
Hi,
We are looking to implement a Health monitor that could run on one of our management servers that would control if servers in our architecture are up or down. Basically a way to manually fail over nodes/pools for maintenance. In operations we do not control our f5 configurations so additional support is needed externally.
In short: How do you configure/implement a health monitor that can be run on another servers so if you take that proxy down it would fail-over applications to redirect traffic away from the servers that need maintenance?
Any direction or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated.
