CirrusFault Tolerance keeping requests in queue.
I have a pool of two members. 1 with priority 1 and other with priority 0. Its kind of fault tolerant. All the requests are entertained by node one. The problem is that the monitors mark the first no...

NoctilucentAs second pool member which is passive will come up after specific timeout of active pool member. In between this timeout the new connection will be lost as active member is up but not responding and pool member is passive so not receiving requests.
i am not aware of the queuing functionality you are talking about. could it be okay if bigip responds with something until the second pool member is up and ready such as holding page?

CirrusI have a VS with no http profile attached. 1 pool and 2 pool members A and B. A has priority 1 and becomes active member and B has priority 0 and becomes passive member. All the traffic goes to member A. ICMP help monitor is configured with interval 2 seconds and timeout 7 seconds. For example now the member A stopped responding But F5 will mark member A down after 7 seconds and after that passive member B will come up and start responding to traffic. But in between these 7 seconds all the new requests will lost as VS was sending traffic to A which was not responding and B was in passive state and VS was not sending traffic to B. What i want is that F5 keep new connections in queue for 7 seconds and send it to member B when VS mark member A down and start sending traffic to member B.
