NimbostratusMonitoring question
Hello guys,
I have a pool with 4 pool member.
In this 4 pool member it's 2 nodes who listen on the port 8080 and 8081.
For resume, I have 2 server with 2 instance by server.
And want to monitor each instance and don't loose 2 server if one of his instance is down.
I hope my explanation was clear.
Thanks in advance.

ebenHi Anthony if i get you correctly, you have 2 physical servers and two instances running per server. by default f5 monitors on all IP addresses and all ports in a pool. Hence If working monitor is used and one instance goes down, it won't affect the server provided other instances are fine.

Hi Anthony,
When you add an HTTP monitor on a pool, if one pool member is down others are not impacted.
So you can create a pool with four instances ( node1:8080 node1:8081 node2:8080 node2:8081 ) and if node1:8080 do not respond to your health check all other instance will still be available if still responding correctly to the monitor.

Anthony_EpronHello,
Thanks for your answer.
The problem is what is the monitor i can use for that.
If i use a TCP_8080 and a TCP_8081 for the pool if node1:8080 is DOWN the node1:8081 is DOWN too because the F5 check the adresse IP with the two monitor.
