Pool Strength below certain Threshold

Hey joe,

 

Is there any way by which f5 can refuse to bring a node OOS based on some criteria of minimum PoolStrength.

 

 

Lets say our pool strength threshold is 50% . So if say bringing a server OOS from this pool will lower the poolStrength below 50 %. So can f5 just reject the operation request and send a response message or alert .

 

 

Any solution near around should be of great help.

 

Thanx,

    I'm not quite sure I understand your question. I'm assuming you mean to ask whether iControl calls to disable a pool member can be configured to be rejected based on external criteria (such as pool strength - which I'm unclear what that means anyway). If so, the answer is no. You'll need to put the logic in your calling application to determine the metric and then disable the pool member.
