F5 config help needed

Hi All, Can we have the LB automatically switch over from .164 to .165 when 3306 is not working BUT do not automatically switch back to .164 when 3306 comes back? We want to manually switch it back...

Looks like you're already using priority group activation, so all you need to do is change your TCP monitor to use manual resume. It's one of the settings within the TCP monitor configuration.

Manual Resume: Displays whether the system automatically changes the status of a resource to Enabled at the next successful monitor check. If you set this option to Yes, you must manually re-enable the resource before the system can use it for load balancing connections. The default is No.

•Yes: Specifies that you must manually re-enable the resource after an unsuccessful monitor check.

•No: Specifies that the system automatically changes the status of a resource to Enabled at the next successful monitor check.
