NimbostratusPriority + lb method member least conn
hi,
We have this pool:
pool External_SLO_Access_POOL { lb method member least conn min active members 1 snat disable slow ramp time 300 monitor all tcp members { {ip2}:macromedia-fcs { priority 100 } {ip2}:macromedia-fcs { priority 10 } } }
We don't know if the Load balancing will follow lb algorithm first or priority or if it's a combination of both configurations.
Can anyone help with this doubt?
Thanks in advance.

I think priority members LB supersede it here. If you have only one member in each prio-level, it won't load balance but HA. If you have multiple members in a prio-level, it would LB between them with least-member algorithm

Well in your situation it'll be priority that will take affect. lb algorithm won't come into play cos with two pool members and different priorities they'll only ever be one available pool member.
Hope this helps,

So priority is the first thing that is checked in F5 Big IP
- natheyes it'll check priority and for similar priority pool members it will apply the lb algorithm. hope this helps.
