Persistence Conundrum
First of all hello! Second of all, i'm attempting to configure a BIG IP LTM to balance both an online web pool and offline processing workflow pool, on a single subnet.
Here is where i'm up too...
We have one VS with multiple pool members for the http web traffic using cookie (Insert) persistence (with 30min timeout). These online pool members pass on processing of http requests to on workflow VS and pool by passing the data (non http data on port 1099) to the VS IP address. Persistence on the workflow VS is set as source affinity with default timeout. The problem i'm seeing is that only one node in the workflow pool appears to process all the requests and i can't figure out if its due to the persistence type or if its because the F5 thinks the requests are coming from the same source (the online VS IP)...
Any ideas what could be happening here or what persistence type i should be using for passing the data from online to workflow VS.
I think thats all :)
