unable to failover to the secondary WIDE IP pool when one of the pool member of the primary pool (GTM)went down

Hi All,

 

Please kindly help me to fix my issue, i have wide IP with two (2) pools with global high availability load balancing method (active/passive), each pool has two (2) pool members which is port 443 and port 80, i want to failover to the other pool when one (1) of the pool members went down.

 

i already did some changes on the pool, pool members and virtual sever health monitors and try to disable the other pool but the pool are still online because the other pool is up.

 

Thanks for your suggestions.

    Hello,

     

    Don't know much about your configuration (wide IP n' all). Why don't you post your pool settings. Didn't understand this [but the pool are still online because the other pool is up.] Did you try disabling your monitor setting?

    Hi,

    Did you select 

    return to dns
    method in fallback of your first pool?

    The pool is not ignored if status is down but if no lb method matches.
