Apr 02, 2012F5- Load balancing questions
Hi
In a typical web server load balancing scenario with Round Robin, we would like to make sure that a minimum number of servers are online at any given point of time, say 50% servers should be online all the time.For example, if there are 6 member servers on a VIP, 3 servers have to be online all the time or raise an alert if more than 50% have to be marked offline. Is it possible to include code to send an alert in the probe file to get the number of current healthy servers and the number of total servers in the pool and use this information for triggering an alert in case the load balancer has to take more than 50% servers offline? This alert will help in the operational folks in dealing with the situation.
Thanks

Thanks Kevin. I more interested in handling capacity issues. I was thinking whether we can include code need to take care of this. Is the below doable using a probe file?
