Dependent pool iRules

Hi Black Shamrock,

I see a good chance to support your scenario by just configuring regular health-monitors. So you may try the following setup...

- PoolA
    - Member1:
        IP: 10.400.70.176 
        Priority Group: 5
        Health Monitors: Member Specific 
        Availability Requirement: All
        Select Monitors
            - Build-in "tcp" monitor
            - Custom "tcp" monitor with Alias Address / Alias Service Port settings for 10.400.70.177:Service_Port
    - Member2:
        IP: 10.500.42.161
        Priority Group: 1
        Health Monitors: Member Specific 
        Availability Requirement: All
        Select Monitors
            - Build-in "tcp" monitor


- PoolB
    - Member1:
        IP: 10.400.70.177 
        Priority Group: 5
        Health Monitors: Member Specific 
        Availability Requirement: All
        Select Monitors
            - Build-in "tcp" monitor
            - Custom "tcp" monitor with Alias Address / Alias Service Port settings for 10.400.70.176:Service_Port
    - Member2:
        IP: 10.500.42.162
        Priority Group: 1
        Health Monitors: Member Specific 
        Availability Requirement: All
        Select Monitors
            - Build-in "tcp" monitor

The above configuration should team the availibility of the members 10.400.70.176 and 10.400.70.177, so that if one of them becomes "offline" both will become "offline" at the same time.

Cheers, Kai
