Hi Nic,

 

thanks for your swift response. yes that's right and I would like to present both option i.e. failover separately and failover for all services if possible.

​I would try it the following way:

  • Create Data Center Objects
  • Create a GTM Server Object (Generic Host)  for each DC with your shared Public IP
  • Create 4 Virtual Server Objects within the Server Object, all with the same IP and Port, but assign a specific Monitor (suitable for the Application) to each of them
  • Create Pools for each Application for each DC
  • Create Wide-IP's for each Application referencing to the Pools

 

I didn't got much into detail, but hopefully you can follow my idea anyway.
