NimbostratusF5 Big-IP - Persistence Profiles
Hello,
We seem to be having an issue with Cookie based persistence profiles. The problem is during a code deploy, we split our traffic between two clusters of web servers, we put them in all in...
Is your proxy possibly re-using connections for multiple users? If so, you would need a one connect profile on the virtual server so that it load balances per request instead of per connection.
See https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/7000/900/sol7964.html for more details
Are you terminating SSL on the 443 virtual server so any persistence cookie can be properly examined? (You can re-encrypt to the back end servers, if need be.)
The cookie persistence profile on the port 80 virtual server is meaningless since the 443 redirect iRule prevents the connection from ever being load balanced in the first place.
