I apologize for being a bit obtuse. Can describe how your scenario differs from what I set out above? Is it perhaps the case that there is no LTM in DC2 and that the servers in DC2 are not part of an LTM pool? If that's true, what I say about the monitoring still holds, except that the monitor for the servers in DC2 will be defined on the GTM rather than the LTM (though, strictly speaking, if the LTM is added to the GTM cluster, either may actually perform the monitoring task).

 

My essential point is that, if a GTM VS (or an entire server) is marked "down" by a GTM monitor, then the GTM will not direct traffic there.
