SERVER_CLOSED

Is SERVER_CLOSED (or some other event) triggered if the server side connection cannot be established? In other words, if I make a load balance selection of a server which is down, but which has not yet been marked down because the monitor timeout has not expired.

    The event you're looking for is LB_FAILED.

     

     

    SERVER_CLOSED is triggered when an established server-side connection is closed.

  • Thanks. That's not what I thought LB_FAILED did. (From reading the definition it sounds like that event is triggered when no pool member is available for load balancing.)

     

     

    I will try it out.

    There have been several threads discussing that, and from what I understand, both are true. Thanks for the heads up -- I've updated the wiki page to reflect that as well.

     

     

    The "active_members" command may also be used to more proactively check on pool member availability, which gives you greater flexibility logic-wise if all members are down.
