Nimbostratushealth monitor IIS
Hello,
I was wondering if someone can shed some light on a health monitor I am trying to setup. Ill give a brief overview of the setup.
We have an application that gets proxied via apache ( apache are the nodes in the pool being monitored, acts as proxy nothing more) to IIS where the application actually lives.
I am trying to setup a monitor so that it monitors say an index.html page on the IIS server something along the lines of
Send string - http://Portal/dir/index.html receive string - IIS is up
Tried to use this but nodes fail the health check when applying the monitor to the pool
The service ports that its monitoring for are https
Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks

have you tried doing a curl -v https://.... from the big-ip and check if you get the right response?
also you mention https but in your send string it says http://, i believe the http:// or https:// isn't need there anyway, you do a get /... without the http(s).

you can use a custom http monitor, "GET /index.html". you have to look for a static text in the html page to apply the status of the node. for example, title of the page or a html tag, '', etc. Look up here - http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/ltm_configuration_guide_10_0_0/ltm_monitors.html1209612
Hope, this answers.

Can you please try below send string and receive string: Send string: GET /test.html HTTP/1.1\nHost:\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n Receive string: IIS is up
Change host to your local FQDN name and HTML and receive string also according to your configurations.
