Similar feature to LB::status under v9.0.5

Thanks for the very quick reply. We used the function active_members which I was not aware before.

 

 

Let me explain what we do, as a reference:

 

 

- we only have 2 servers, each one runs 2 services Svc1 and Svc2

 

- the request logic is:

 

* a request must go to a server with Svc1 up

 

* if there is node with Svc2 up, go to this node

 

 

We create 2 pools, each one with the same 2 servers but each pool has its own monitor, pool1 monitor svc1 and pool2 monitors svc2.

 

 

The irule becomes:

 

 

if active_members(pool1) < 2

 

because we have only 2 servers, only 1 has svc1 up, so go to this one

 

pool pool1

 

else

 

we have 2 servers with svc1 up

 

if active_members(pool2) > 0

 

svc2 is up on at least 1 node, use pool2 to load balance

 

pool pool2

 

else

 

svc2 is down on both servers, load balance

 

pool pool1

 

 

A bit complex, but it achieves our purpose.

 

 

Thanks again
