Application layer persistence iRule
A customer of mine has a persistence requirement between his web servers and application server layer. BIG-IP is load balancing two layers: web layer and application layer. Persistence at web layer is...
what would the persistence behavior be in this case?
should I define the two members (app1 and app2) in each of the pools?
what I understand from this Irule is this:
if connection is coming from web1, send it to app1_pool (which has two members app1 and app2 where app1 has a higher priority). else if it is coming from web2 send the connection to app2_pool where app2 server has a higher priority. off course if pool members app1 or app2 are down by monitor, it will select the second member.
there should not be any need for a persistence profile in this case.right?
