Oct 16, 2006persist lookup uie command
Hi,
I can get IP address of pool member with "persist lookup uie node" command.
For example, I can get "10.4.10.201" with "persist lookup uie $reqid node" command ($requid = 11111111) from the following persistence table.
PERSISTENT CONNECTIONS --
Mode: universal Value: 11111111
Virtual: 192.168.0.200:http Node: 10.4.10.201:80 Age: 153sec
Now I have a problem that I can't get IP address of pool member when the status of "node 10.4.10.201:80" is down.
The persistence table isn't reaped though the status of node is down.
But, it seems that the command "persist lookup uie 11111111 node" rerurns "null".
The version is v9.1.2.
In fact, the outputs of commnad change by the the status of pool member.
- "node 10.4.10.201:80" is UP. => The command "persist lookup uie 11111111 node" returns "10.4.10.201:80".
- "node 10.4.10.201:80" is DOWN. => The command "persist lookup uie 11111111 node" returns "null".
I hope that BIG-IP loadbalances on the basis of the current persistence table with such a following rule, regardless of the status of pool member.
Is it possible that I can get IP address of pool member with 'persist lookup' when the status of node is down ?

- unRuleY_95363Historic F5 AccountSince it looks like you are managing the entries directly, you might try using the "session" command instead of the "persist" command. It basically works the same except you provide it the data to store (use [LB::server]) and it doesn't make any judgement based on node availability.

I tested "session lookup uie $reqid node" . But the session command rerurns "null" when node is down.
