How to determine which priority group is active with irule

Can you clarify your intentions? Do you need to know the priority group of the selected pool member in real time, in an iRule? Or something from the management plane?

Actually I have 6 members in a group, Member A, B, C with higher priority and member D, E, F with lower priority. Least available members configured to 2

 

 

Now for particular bunch of source IP, I want the traffic to stick to one member of a pool. So I can make an irule with match class and select member as A.

 

if A is down go to B and if B is down go to C.

 

 

But the issue here is, let's say A and B is down, so priority group will fail over to DEF. But above irule will still send traffic to C which is creates a discrepancy as my other traffic is flowing through D, E, F.

 

 

So before selecting a pool member I need to know which priority group is active A,B, C or D,E,F and then send traffic accordingly.

can we create 2 pools (ABC and DEF) and use irule to send traffic to DEF pool when active member of ABC pool is equal to 1?

Hello Nitass,

 

 

Yes that is the last option which I have suggested in case if I don't find a solutin on time.
