Host a HTML Maintenance Page on LTM

thanks I did...I uploaded it as a text file, it worked.

But it's not displaying the logo on the Page which we have as a part of maintenance page.

How can we use logo and text together?

I tried this but didn't work:

when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [active_members [LB::server pool]] == 0 } { HTTP::respond 200 content [ifile get maintenance.html] "Content-Type" "text/html" and [ifile get logo.png] "Content-Type" "image/gif"

} }

Hi,

you have to follow how I built my irule for maintenance. in the maintenance.html file, you should have a reference to the logo like this :

and your irule should looks like this :

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [active_members $default_pool] < 1 } { 
        HTTP::respond 200 content [ifile get "/Common/maintenance.html"] noserver "Content-Type" "text/html" "Cache-Control" "no-cache, must-revalidate" 
        return
    }

    if { [string tolower [HTTP::path]] equals "/logo.png" } {
            HTTP::respond 200 content [ifile get "/Common/logo.png"] noserver "Content-Type" "image/png" "Cache-Control" "no-cache, must-revalidate" 
    }
} 

I tried this but didn't work..... for the logo I still see a 'X' there.

Why are you using '/Common' before the iFile like /Common/logo.png.

Is there any other way to provide reference to the logo? like I don't want to use another 'If' statement. Can it be integrated in one 'if' statement - both Image and HTML?

Like if I use only logo IF statement, it works and if I use only HTML IF statement, it works but if I use both together, Image doesn't come up.

Any help??

Hi,

/Common match the partition. Common is the default partition, but if you have more than one partition, you need to specify the partition the object belong to in the irule.

Doing a request to the Virtual Server, you can answer with a single response. You can avoid the query to the logo if you integrate the image to the html content. You have to replace the img tag by following :

![Embedded Image](data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAADIA...)

Note that the image must be base64 encoded.

Moreover, using the first scenario, I think you should change the if order in the irule :

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [string tolower [HTTP::path]] equals "/logo.png" } {
            HTTP::respond 200 content [ifile get "/Common/logo.png"] noserver "Content-Type" "image/png" "Cache-Control" "no-cache, must-revalidate" 
            return
    }
    if { [active_members $default_pool] < 1 } { 
        HTTP::respond 200 content [ifile get "/Common/maintenance.html"] noserver "Content-Type" "text/html" "Cache-Control" "no-cache, must-revalidate" 
        return
    }
}

great- that worked with minor changes. thank you so much for your help!
