How to control pool selection in VS when you have more than one pool?

I have Two pools that i have created in a VS i.e. pool1 and pool2 on LTM. Using round-robing services isnt a factor at the moment (HTTP) LTM sends Session A to Pool 1 node 1 and 2. If node 1 on pool ...

Hi Maneesh,

 

I am trying to send HTTP traffic.

 

So for example if SERVER A hits the VIP at this stage has option to either use POOL-1 or POOL-2 for this instance it gets pushed to Pool 1 with 2 node NODE-A and NODE-B RR selects NODE-A responds all good.

 

If SERVER A hits the same VIP again it gets the same option to either use POOL-1 or POOL-2 but this time POOL-1 has NODE-A as down. I want this session to then keep using POOL 1 and use NODE-B rather than moving to POOL-2.

 

But if SERVER B attempts to connect with a new session it can use either POOL-1 or POOL-2

 

Is this possible?

 

Thanks
