Hi Munim,
Yes it is possible.
You can create Pool for the UTI servers and a pool for the PF servers and assign them to their corresponding VIPs.
Also you can monitor servers that are not part of the pool but are a dependency without having them in the same pools. There is a feature in the monitor profiles where you can monitor a different set of servers with having it be a member of the same pool.
For example:
You have a VIP that is associated to a pool with 2 nodes. The structure looks like the following
VIP:HTTP
|
|-> Pool HTTP_POOL
|
|------>IP: 192.168.12.20:80
|
|------>IP: 192.168.12.21:80
Now you have a monitor at the pool level check to make sure PORT 80(HTTP) is responding. However, you need to also monitor another port on a speperate server with an address 192.168.50.12 on port 2343. Then what you do is create a seperate monitors which as the Alias Address: 192.168.50.12 with the alias service port 2343. Then all you need to do is add that monitor to the HTTP_POOL above.
I hope this helps
