AltostratusGTM - iquery over internet and sync.
Hi, we are doing a GTM deployment across 2 x DCs. So there is 1 x GTM and a LTM pair in each DC. Lets name them as follows - DC1 - has GTM1 and LTM-pair1 DC2 - has GTM2 and LTM-pair2 We are running iquery over the internet for monitoring the LTM pair across DCs (the local LTM gets monitored on the LAN). So GTM1 monitors LTM-pair1 over the local-lan (private ips) and LTM-pair2 over internet (public ips). Now here`s my question - when we add GTM2 to the sync-group and we run "gtm_add" from GTM2, will it copy the config as it is? This is not what we want as GTM2 should be monitoring LTM-pair2 over lan (private ips) and LTM-pair1 over internet (public ips). Basically it should be REVERSED at the other end. I believe this is a common hurdle for anyone who is running iquery over the internet to monitor their LTM present in a remote DC. thnx

I think you will need to setup two pools using both private and public ips and then mark the local GTM as the stat collection server over private ip address. But it depends how you are monitoring the LTM health.
sandy16That`s what my question is. If monitoring the remote DC - ltm over the internet then we use public ip and NAT it on the interent firewall to the corresponding private ip. But, if we sync the 2nd GTM with the 1st one, we want the LTM entries to be reversed in terms of public/private ip. I believe this is very common to monitor the remote LTM by using iquery over the internet from the GTM. Has anyone done this? Any takers out there??
