NimbostratusI had the same issue with a POC I am working on presently where pings made to a pool are not being replied. However, a tcpdump shows that the packet got to the interface holding the pool member. ICMP is not a supported way to test virtual server connectivity. It's better to have a proper service running on the pool member and have the service accessed via the VS.
In my case, the test was successful once the VS was attached to the service rather than depending on port connectivity with ICMP pings.
