Load Balancing Application & Database Servers
Hi All,
I am new to F5 and need some recommendation, may be someone can help.
Q1. I have 4 web servers load balancing with source IP persistance and round robin load balancing. These web servers talk to 4 application servers. I want one to one mapping among each web and application server and in case of a failure, I want the web server to be able to communicate to next available application server. What is the best way to achieve this and what load balancing method should I use.
Q2. The second tier is the 4 application servers communicate with two database servers with Priority group values of 100 and 50. I want application servers to communicate with DB1 databse servers with higher group priority and in case of a failure of db1 i want the apps server to go to the db2 databse server. In case the db1 comes up, I want all connections kept to db2 and not back to db1 and go to db2 only in case of failure of db2
I hope someone can help and there is a solution. I would not mind looking at any best industry practices available.
