Event on MEMBER down

Hi all, I need to run an iRule when a member (NOT the pool / LB_FAILED) of the pool changes its state. Which is the correct event to track?

 

Thanks

    iRules don't execute on pool members going down, they are event driven based on traffic traversing the device. However you can check the status of the pool in CLIENT_ACCEPTED (TCP handshake would need to be completed before the pool members are checked) such as using

    active_members

    to see see if the number of active members has changed or below a threshold.

     

     

    when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
  if { [active_members http_pool] >= 2 } {
    pool http_pool
  }
}

     

    Are you able to elaborate anymore on your requirement?
