AltocumulusTwo load balancers with one public IP + two types of SSL certificates (custom and automatic)
Hello,
Can I have two HTTPS load balancers sharing the same public IP but using different SSL certificate types: one HTTPS with Custom Certificate and another one HTTPS with Automatic Certificate?
I don't have any issues with the HTTPS with Custom Certificate one, but creating the second one gives VIRTUAL_HOST_PENDING_A_RECORD message for some days.
Thank you.

Hello Teddy_Brewski
First of all lets clarify you a speaking for XC.
Yes you can have many LBs you using the same IP
But in order to have automatic ceritificate you have to crate an A record or CNAME pointing to the F5 XCIP or URL accordingly and and another CNAME for the automatic certificate validation.
Have you created them?
Teddy_BrewskiThank you Injeyan_Kostas
Yes indeed, I'm talking about XC.
I did create an A record (tried CNAME too), but it didn't really help.
May be I need to provide a little bit more info.
So, I have a load balancer with the Custom Certificate option selected. It has a wildcard certificate attached to it covering *.mydomain.org. No issues here -- everything works fine.
I created another load balancer and would like to use Automatic Certificate option this time. I defined one domain entry in the second load balancer: sitea.mydomain.org. I created an A (and CNAME) entries, but VIRTUAL_HOST_PENDING_A_RECORD is still there.
I think my first load balancer takes the priority now since it has a wildcard certificate.
There is a specific CNAME for cert needed
Have you created it?
