TCP Port Monitor for NFS.

I have setup NFS LB. This basically requires you to create a pool with a wildcard and then virtual hosts on the ports you need. Problem is you can't put a TCP or UDP monitor on the NFS pool to check for member availability.

 

 

Can this be done with an iRule or perhaps a script monitor. If so how?

 

 

Thanks.

    Hi,

     

     

    You shouldn't need a script monitor for this unless you want to do protocol level checking of the NFS server. You can configure a standard TCP and UDP monitor for a specific port and then associate it with the wildcard pool. You'll need to know each TCP and/or UDP port you want to monitor. This page has some detail for NFS (Click here).

    Yes. Thankyou. I just added the port to the Alias in the TCP monitor and that worked.
