Health Monitor Required

Hello Friend,

You can configure a simple health monitor using GET method.

1. Navigate to Local Traffic  ››  Monitors  ››  New Monitor.
2. Enter Name and Type HTTP
3. Send String - GET /ldprobe.htm HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: \r\nConnection: Close\r\n\r\n
4. Receive String - 200 OK
4. Finish

Hope this helps.

btw, Is there any specific requirement for iRule to probe health monitor?

Hi

as the previos poster have already recommended, you should use a LTM Monitor to test the health of your application.

To allow status codes between 200 and 999 you have to define the Receive String using regular expression...

Send String     : GET /ldprobe.htm HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.insert-your-domain-name.tld\r\nConnection: Close\r\n\r\n
Receive String  : HTTP/1.(0|1) [2-9][0-9][0-9]

Cheers, Kai

As i mentioned earler the 'Receive String - 200 OK' would be fine for you as per your curl output.
