The default monitor associated with nodes are ICMP. And the pools will also have some monitor associated with it, usually if the services is running - the member will be marked up and inturn marking the pool available.

 

Removing the default monitor should not cause any impact on the pool, because pool also has a monitor configured in it.

 

Can you please share your config, showing what monitor is configured in pool.
