Health Check Issues

Hi DC,

 

VIP configured on port 443 and backend servers are on port 8443. Monitor send string as GET /testConnection HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: Close\r\n\r\n and applied to the pool and using SNAT automap. Traffic should come from https://abc.expert.com/testConnection

 

But the traffic is not coming through the https://abc.expert.com instead of https://abc.expert.com/testConnection and they are seeing Active and standby self IPs.

 

Any Suggestions please ?

  • Hello Shri@, I didn't understand it well. The issue is regarding a wrong monitor/hostname arriving in the backend or your are expecting selfip instead float ip? Sorry but is not clear to me.

     

    Regards.

     

  • OK no problem. Could you share that monitor setup? I still don't know if I need to suggest a redirection/enforce "/testConnection" on client requests, or the "client" mentioned, is the server owner saying you need to monitor the correct path.

     

    Regards.

    Default https: Monitor send string as GET /testConnection HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: Close\r\n\r\n Recieve String : 200

     

  • OK, I don't know if your example has a typo, but the monitor should be:

    GET /testConnection HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: abc.expert.com\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n

    Correct?
