Cirrusmark server down when receive 503
Hi, i've iis server and monitor it with http monitor, but when service becomes unavailable the member stills up, so it included in loadbalancing. I want to customize Http monitor to check status code and mark it down when receive 503. i did one but it didn't do the job.

refra,
Try this as a Receive String:
HTTP/1/[01] [23]0[0-6]
This will look for good status codes e.g. 200, 301, 302. Server will be marked down if a 503 is received.

refra_151287thnx guys, I used something like that "HTTP/1/[01] [23]0[0-6]" before but it marked member up also, where i asked to get the home page (ex. GET /home.spx HTTP/1.1) what could be the issue.- nitasshave you tried the receive string i posted (HTTP/1\.[01] [23]0[0-6])?

if you just want the 503, you can also try that
when HTTP_RESPONSE { if { [HTTP::status] = 503 } { LB::down } }https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/7000/400/sol7440.html
- refra_151287thnx Macro, finally I used it and it worked well: Request: GET /index.html HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: hoostname.company.com\r\nConnection: Close\r\n Receive String: h.*k
