NimbostratusSchedule draining connections
Hello,
I have a pool with 2 servers. I need to drain the connections to one of them on a regular basis for maintenance.
Some times draining the connections needs to happen later at night.
I need a way to schedule the draining of the connections before the server goes down.
Can you please let me know if there is a way to schedule the draining of the connections before a server goes down ?
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like an ideal use case for iCall if you're prepared to invest some time learning about it. https://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/iCall.Homepage.ashx
Ozu_69704Thank you What Lies Beneath, unfortunately I need a solution that I can implement quickly.

I thought you might say that. What's the issue with doing this manually?

Hmmm, I'm out of technical suggestions I'm afraid, perhaps others have some? Sounds like it might be worth investing some time for really.
Could you perhaps provide the server team with a limited access account and have them do it themselves?
