NimbostratusHealth monitor to multiple websites
Hi, very new to F5, so please bear with with.
I have a pool with four members and all of them host the same multiple websites. I've been asked to set up a health monitor so if one of the websites goes down on one member, the F5 will stop serving connections to that member for that particular website (make sense?).
Can you advise how this is achievable?
Many thanks Alex

This is F5 raison d'etre. Take a look at the following article, it discusses HTTP health monitors

If you are trying to have a single Virtual Server serving traffic for four different websites then I would look to setup four Pools, one per website, with a simple HTTP or HTTPS monitor per pool.
Then in your virtual server you need to create a
forwarding traffic to the correct Pool based on HTTP Hostname and/or HTTP URI.Local Traffic PolicySee the following for examples of
