Ok, but just to set things clear 1st, monitors can be assigned to pools, pool_members and nodes.

 

 

Http_VS

- http_pool

 

-

 

- pool_memberA

 

- pool_memberB

 

 

If you need to use the cli, you can use the command

 

 

"b pool http_pool monitor all https"

 

 

This will modify your existing monitor if any and then use the monitor specified above. However this changes for the pool and all the pool members in it.

 

 

To specifically modify for each individual pool member in a pool

 

 

"b pool http_pool member 10.10.70.120:http monitor http"

 

 

So when you run the b list command it should show

 

 

pool http_pool {

 

monitor all https

 

member 10.10.70.110:http

 

member 10.10.70.120:http monitor http

 

member 10.10.70.130:http

 

}
