Status flag on virtual server set to green?

Hi mate!

 

Pools can be chosen via ie default pool, irules, http classes. You need to have a pool connected to the VS in one way or another to show the green flag. I believe the flag will always be green if one or more pools that's associated with the vip in one way or another has available members.

hi patrik yes but if I assign a pool trough a irule - is the status then reflected to the GUI? I had a similar setup with another vs where we assign the pool through a irule

when HTTP_REQUEST { Log debug messages to /var/log/ltm? 1=yes, 0=no. set host_debug 0

Need to force the host header replacement and HTTP:: commands into the clientside context as the HTTP_REQUEST_SEND event is in the serverside context

 if {$host_debug}{log local0. "[HTTP::host]: [HTTP::method] request to [HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"}

   Look up the selected server name in the datagroup to get the right pool
  set pool_name_value [class match -value [HTTP::host] equals /dk_dmz/DK_AE_IP_pools_dg]

  if {$host_debug}{log local0. "[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]: Looked up [HTTP::host], found: $pool_name_value."}

   Check if the lookup returned a value
  if {$pool_name_value ne ""}{

      Replace pool
     pool $pool_name_value
     if {$host_debug}{log local0. "[HTTP::host]: Replaced default pool with $pool_name_value."}
  }

}

but this is not refelcted here ?

I think that's because you set the pool via a variable, not by name.

ok - do you have a quick sample of how it could looke? I have f.ex a pool of name website-pool and want to assign this through a irule to an incoming client which has requested https://www.website1.com - would this look like this then:

 

when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::uri] contains "website1" } { pool website-pool } else { pool all_pool } }

 

Yeah but instead of HTTP::uri you should use HTTP:host. I would also use equals instead of contain as it uses less CPU. :)
