VIP URL after refresh changes to pool member hostname

Hello,

 

I have a VIP url https://abc.domain.com which has 3 pool members xyz1, xyz2 and xyz3. Once the client does a refresh the url displays as https://xyz1.domain.com However there is not performance issues due to this. What could possibly be the reason.

 

Any directions please.

 

Thanks in advance.

  • Your application is misconfigured. It needs to be configured to be abc.domain.com and not xyz1.domain.com.

      Thank you Kevin, I will be able to check with the app team by Monday. I shall update the thread then.
  • Can I suggest you add the following iRule to a test environment. When the client page refreshes look for log entries.

    when HTTP_RESPONSE {
      if {[HTTP::is_redirect]} { log local0. "Redirect found during refresh! Location: [HTTP::header Location]" }
    }
    

    If you see output in /var/log/ltm such as "Redirect found during... " check the location data in the log entry. If it says xyz*.domain.com then investigate the "Rewrite Redirects" option available in HTTP profiles.

      The iRule will require you attached a HTTP profile to your virtual server if you haven't already.
