Need help on configuring for https 500 errors

Theoretically, you could use a reverse HTTPS monitor which sends a GET request to the pool members and marks the pool member down if it receives an HTTP 500 response. However, it would be effective to positively define a successful response (like receiving an HTTP 200 or a 200 with a specific string in the response content). The latter approach means you don't have to worry about no response, an HTTP 503 or any other failure condition.

 

 

You can configure email alerts based on the monitor using alertd, the alert daemon. Try searching AskF5.com or the Monitoring forum here for 'monitor email alert' for examples. If you get stuck on either issue, let us know.
